Priapeia
Priaepia
by divers poets in English verse and prose. Translated by Sir Richard Burton and Leonard C. Smithers
- What shouldest say this spear (although I'm wooden) be wishing
- Whenas a maiden chance me in the middle to kiss?
- Here none augur we: need: believe my word she is saying -
- 'Let the rude spear in me work with its natural wont!'
