Some, are so quarrellous, that they will draw, And Brawle, and Fight, for every toy they see; Grow furious, for the wagging of a straw; And, (otherwise) for lesse then that may be. Some, are more staid, a little, and will beare, Apparent wrongs (which to their face you doe;) But, when they Lye, they cannot brooke to heare That any should be bold to tell them so. Another sort, I know, that blowes will take, Put up the Lye, and give men leave to say What words they please; till spoile they seeke to make Of their estates; And, then, they'le kill and slay. But, of all Hacksters, farre the fiercest are Our Cockrills of the game, (Sir Cupid's knights) Who, (on their foolish Coxcombes ) often weare The Scarres they get in their Venerean-fights. Take heede of these; for, you may pacifie The first, by time: The second, will be pleas'd If you submit, or else your words denie; The third, by satisfaction, are appeas'd: But, he that for his Female, takes offence, Through Iealousy, or madnesse, rageth so; That, he accepteth of no recompence, Till he hath wrought his Rivals overthrow. Such Fury, shun; and, shunne their Vulgar minde, Who for base trash despitefully contend; But, (when a just occasion, thou shalt finde) Thy Vertuous Mistresse, lawfully defend. For, he, that in such cases turnes his face, Is held a Capon, of a Dunghill Race.
