267: \u00a0 To her allowing Husband. \u00a0Gone already,
\n268: \u00a0 Ynch-thick, knee-deepe; ore head and eares a fork’d one.
\n269: \u00a0 Goe play (Boy) play: thy Mother playes, and I
\n270: \u00a0Play too; but so disgrac’d a part, whose issue
\n271: \u00a0 Will hisse me to my Graue: Contempt and Clamor
\n272: \u00a0 Will be my Knell. Goe play (Boy) play, there haue been
\n273: \u00a0 (Or I am much deceiu’d) Cuckolds ere now,
\n274: \u00a0 And many a man there is (euen at this present,
\n275: \u00a0 Now, while I speake this) holds his Wife by th’ Arme,
\n276: \u00a0 That little thinkes she ha’s been sluyc’d in’s absence,
\n277: \u00a0 And his Pond fish’d by his next Neighbor (by
\n278: \u00a0 Sir Smile, his Neighbor:) nay, there’s comfort in’t,
\n279: \u00a0 Whiles other men haue Gates, and those Gates open’d
\n280: \u00a0 (As mine) against their will. Should all despaire
\n281: \u00a0 That haue reuolted Wiues, the tenth of Mankind
\n282: \u00a0 Would hang themselues. Physick for’t, there’s none:
\n283: \u00a0 It is a bawdy Planet, that will strike
\n284: \u00a0 Where ’tis predominant; and ’tis powrefull: thinke it:
\n285: \u00a0 From East, West, North, and South, be it concluded,
\n286: \u00a0 No Barricado for a Belly. Know’t,
\n287: \u00a0 It will let in and out the Enemy,
\n288: \u00a0 With bag and baggage: many thousand on’s
\n289: \u00a0 Haue the Disease, and feele’t not. How now Boy?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
