I can't exactly trace their rule of right,

Which hath a little leaning to a lottery.

I've seen a virtuous woman put down quite

By the mere combination of a coterie;

Also a so-so matron boldly fight

Her way back to the world by dint of plottery,[MN]And shine the very Siria,[686] of the spheres,

Escaping with a few slight, scarless sneers.
