- "If she be sluttish, pieuish, and vntoward, Wilful,and wanton, lazie, curst,and sullen, Franticke, and foolish, whineling, and froward, And scarce can make a threed of russet wollen, But must be taught how to put vp her pullen: To haue a wench well followed with such fits, Would make a poore man halie beside his wits."
- "Half swells, then sinks, like fails of ships becalm'd, A dry, dead, sweet — man's mummied voice embalm'd. Shame on the whineling, sleep-inducive, tone!"
