A Satyr against whoring , In Answer to a Satyr against Marriage . SLaves to Debauchery and Lustful Rage , That drein the Streets and prostitute the Stage , Begot in heat of Lust on Hackney Whores , Souls wrapt in Excrements of common Shoars . Standing for patterns , 'fore the Limners Eye To draw the Lustful God Priapus by . Pox take 'em all ! This Curse I doubt's too late , It long has been , 't is like , your Whoring Fate ; Then all the Curses ever Sodom knew , Or pocky Jilts , light on your Race and You ; Inflam'd by Lust , may you with Passion move , And have the Pox return'd instead of Love , May you with stinking Breaths pass Unador'd , And Breath a fulsom Clap at every Word ; May Dreams disturb by Night , and Whores by Day , And Ravenous Shankers eat your Flesh away ; May Sores without , and Fervent Heat within , Consume and wast away your Loathsom Skin ; May you be so debaucht , so vilely Lewd , 'Till grown so great , Lust cannot be Renew'd ; 'Till one sad Ach expels another pain , And Claps in Circles meet with Claps again ; 'Till Stone , and Gout , and Stranguries Contend , Which to Old-Nick your Lustful Soul shall send ; Haulting may you in Lifes dull Journey go , Condemn'd to Stews above , and Hell below ; May Bawling Bawds about your dwellings roame , And all your Spurious Issue haunt your home ; Having spent all your Wealth in Leachery , May you unpittied on a Dunghil die ; May all these Curses , and ten thousand more Then all the Angry Gods have in their Store , Light on you ; then may Darted Vengeance come , With hoorded Bolts of Wrath to raise your Tomb. Gods ! why o'er Nature did you take such Care , In making Women exquisitely Fair ? Why build you dazling Altars like the Skies , And do provide no better Votaries Then men ? Lascivious men ! whose Lustful frown Spoils all that 's fair , and pulls what 's Sacred down ; Will all enjoy , and Married be to none , Though Nature dictates only to use one : In broken Language Beasts by pairs do prate , The cooing Dove bills but his Single Mate ; But man , unbounded man ! Attempts all ill , His Lust is grown as Boundless as his Will ; That Name call'd Husband is of Terror full , The State Uneasie , Melancholy , Dull ; The Kennel , Kitchin , Oyster , rampant Whore , Before a Wife , 's the Creature they Adore . What Sot would Wander ? that has by his Side The Powerful Charms of a Smiling Bride , Cool as the coldest Night , and Chaster far Then Anchorets or Vestal Virgins are , Whose equal Love , do's equal Heat Inspire , Prompted by Kindness not a base Desire ; In whose Embraces gladly pass away Whole tedious years in but one Halcyon day . Fate Favours him , that makes him spend his Life , Doom'd to those Golden Chains , to please a Wife .
