TO GAURUS
[From Martial,] Lib. 2. Ep. 89.
That thou dost shorten thy long Nights with Wine,We all forgive thee, for so Cato did;
That thou writ'st Poems without one good Line,
Tully's Example may that Weakness hide;
Thou art a Cuckold, so great Cæsar was;
Eat'st till thou spew'st, Antonius did the same;
That thou lov'st Whores, Jove loves a bucksom Lass;
But that th'art whipt, is thy peculiar Shame.
