LXXVIII.

And for the effeminate villeggialura

Rife with more horns than hounds—she hath the chase,

So animated that it might allure a

Saint from his beads to join the jocund race:

Even Nimrod's self might leave the plains of Dura,[679]And wear the Melton jacket for a space:

If she hath no wild boars, she hath a tame

Preserve of bores, who ought to be made game.[MK]
