Priapeia
Priaepia
by divers poets in English verse and prose. Translated by Sir Richard Burton and Leonard C. Smithers
- In verse), on no wise deign thereat to blush;
- Thou be not heavier than our poet hung.
- Know that this crass coarse yard nor lengthens nor stands as becomes it;
- Though an thou handle the same unto fair growth will it grow.
- Woe's me! how lustful girls are gulled by its seeming dimensions
- Than which bigger of bulk never a prickle was seen.
