[4.] A Gentleman that had never been used to Wounds, received a small scratch with a Sword in a Tavern Fray; at which he was sadly frighted, and sent immediately for a Chyrurgeon, who coming, and seeing the Wound but slight, and the Gentleman in a great fear: for sport's sake pretended great danger, and therefore sends his Man with great speed to fetch him such a Plaister: _Why Sir_, quoth the Gentleman, _is the wound so dangerous?_ _O Yes_, replyed the Arch Chyrurgeon, _for if he don't make great haste, it will heal of it self, before he comes._ Scylla _toothlesse_. _Scylla_ is toothlesse; yet when she was young, [24.] She had both tooth enough, and too much tongue: What should I now of toothlesse _Scylla_ say? But that her tongue hath worne her teeth away. The extravagances of male attire in Charles the First's time justly called down the wrath of the Satirists, particularly of the Puritan School. The Cavaliers, however, were only effeminate in their dress, their gallant conduct in the Civil war proving them to be men of mettle. The subjoined is so faithful in its representation of the then height of fashion as to be almost removed from caricature, still the letterpress evidently intends it to be a satire as bitter as could be made by the Roundhead who penned it, who naturally believed in "the Unlovelinesse of Love Lockes."
