Their foolish Guise, I never could affect, Who dare, for any cause, the _Stewes_ frequent: And, thither, where I justly might suspect A _Strumpet_ liv’d, as yet, I never went. For, when (as _Fooles_ pretend) they goe to seeke Experience, where more _Ill_ then _Good_, they see; They venture for their _Knowledge_, _Adam_-like; And, such as his, will their _Atchievements_ bee. Let, therefore, those that would loose _Trulls_ detest, Converse with none, but those that modest are; For, they that can of _Whoredome_ make a Iest, Will entertaine it, ere they be aware. _Chast-Company_, and _Chast-Discourse_, doth make The Minde more pleased with it, ev’ry day; And, _Frequent viewes of Wantonnesse_, will take The Sense and Hatred, of the _Vice_ away. Some, I have k_n_owne, by _Harlots_ Wiles undone, Who, but _to see their Fashions_ first pretended; And, they that went _for Company_, alone, By suddaine Quarrells, there, their Dayes have ended. For, in the Lodgings of a _Lustfull-Woman_, Immodest _Impudence_ hath still her Being; There, _Furie_, _Fraud_, and _Cruelties_ are common: And, there, is _Want_, and _Shame_, and _Disagreeing_. Ev’n _Beauty_, of it selfe, stirres loose Desires, Occasioning both _Iealousies_, and _Feares_; It kindleth in the Brest, concealed _Fires_, Which burne the Heart, before the _Flame_ appeares: And, ev’ry day, experienced are wee; That, there, where _Hellen_ is, _Troyes_ Fate will bee. _No Inward =Griefe=, nor outward =Smart=, Can overcome a =Patient-Heart=._ [Illustration: VICTRIX PATIENTIA DVRI.
