Priapeia

Priaepia

by divers poets in English verse and prose. Translated by Sir Richard Burton and Leonard C. Smithers

  1. In sport bespoken for mine own disport;
  2. Thieves taken thrice or four tunes in the fact
  3. (Believe my word) I'll surely irrumate.
  1. What shouldest say this spear (although I'm wooden) be wishing
  2. Whenas a maiden chance me in the middle to kiss?
  3. Here none augur we: need: believe my word she is saying -
  4. 'Let the rude spear in me work with its natural wont!'
