Who to a woman trusts his peace of mind,
Trusts a frail bark, with a tempestuous wind.

A woman's envy, and a bigot's rage?

That every man's a fool, when we think fit.

Feigning delay, she wishes for dispatch;
Into a woman's meaning wou'd you look,
Then read her backward.

Not left us woman, or not threatened hell.

No vengeance like a woman's.
Heroick Love (1702)
