- # THE RAPE OF LVCRECE.
- Why Colatine, is woe the cure for woe?
- Do wounds helpe wounds, or griefe helpe greeuous
- Is it reuenge to giue thy felfe a blow,
(deeds?) For his fowle Act, by whom thy faire wife bleeds?
- Such childish humor from weake minds proceeds,
- Thy wretched wife mistooke the matter fo,
- To flaie her felfe that should haue flaine her Foe.
- Couragious Romaine, do not fteepe thy hart
- In fuch relenting dew of Lamentations,
But kneele with me and helpe to beare thy part,
To rowfe our Romaine Gods with inuocations,
That they will fuffer thefe abhominations.
(Since Rome her felf in the doth stand disgraced,)
By our strong arms fro forth her fair streets chaced.
- Now by the Capitoll that we adore,
And by this chaft bloud fo vniuftlie stained,
By heauens faire fun that breeds the fat earths ftore,
By all our countrey rights in Rome maintained,
And by chaft L vcrece foule that late complained
Her wrongs to vs, and by this bloudie knife,
VVe will reuenge the death of this true wife.
