XLIV.

Some have their wives, their sisters some begot,

But in the lives of Emperours you shall not

Reade of a lust the which may equall this;

This wolfe begot himselfe, and finished

What he began alive, when hee was dead; 435

Sonne to himselfe, and father too, hee is

A ridling lust, for which Schoolemen would misse

A proper name. The whelpe of both these lay

In Abels tent, and with soft Moaba,

His sister, being yong, it us'd to sport and play. 440
