In Romam.
Non ego Romulea miror quòd pastor in urbe
Sceptra gerat: pastor conditor urbis erat.
Sceptra gerat: pastor conditor urbis erat.
I wonder not a Shepheard Rome should sway,
A Shepheard Romes foundation first did lay,
My wonder is since, Romulus the first
That reard the same, was by a shee-wolfe nurst,
That even to these dayes as we plainely see,
So many raging Wolves in Rome should be.
274
A Wolfe should keepe the fould, and the sheepe feed.
