58. Whatever Thief Shall Trick My Faith May He

58

Priapus

Quicumque nostram fur fefellerit curam,

effeminato verminet procul culo;

quaeque hic proterva carpserit manu poma

puella, nullum reperiat fututorem.

Whatever thief shall trick my faith may he

Wither, far banisht from th' effeminate bum!

Whatever damsel plucks with wanton hand

This fruitage, never find she one to strum!

Whatever thief who deceives my faith may he wither away, far from the buttocks of a catamite. And whatso girl who with audacious hand plucks off these apples, may she meet with no futterer.
