| The following lyrics encode something which is either crystal clear or totally unintelligible. No explanations are necessary, and no explanations can do any good. Nevertheless I cannot help commenting. We are alone together, after all.<br> ] (]) 03:51, 18 October 2009 (UTC) | |||

| 23. Now in regard there have been many such, as well<br | |||
| among us as among the barbarians, who can bear with | |||
| those that reproach Venus that, being coupled and present | |||
| with Love, she becomes a hindrance of friendship? | |||
| Whereas any sober and considerate person may rather revile | |||
| the of male with male, and justly call it intemperance | |||
| and lasciviousness,<br> | |||
| ::''A vile affront to Nature, no effect<br> | |||
| ::''Of lovely Venus or of chaste respect.<br> | |||
| And therefore, as for those that willingly prostitute their | |||
| bodies, we look upon them to be the most wicked and flagitious | |||
| persons in the world, void of fidelity, neither endued | |||
| with modesty nor any thing of friendship ; and but too | |||
| truly and really, according to Sophocles,<br> | |||
| ::''They who ne'er had such friends as these,<br> | |||
| ::''Believe their blessing double ;<br> | |||
| ::''And they that have them, pray the Gods<br> | |||
| ::''To rid them of the trouble.•<br> | |||
| And as for those who, not being by nature lewd and wicked, | |||
| were circumvented and forced to prostitute themselves, | |||
| there are no men whom these always look upon with greater | |||
| suspicion and more perfect hatred than those that deluded | |||
| and nattered them into so vile an act, and they bitterly | |||
| revenge themselves when they find an opportunity. For | |||
| Crateas killed Archelaus, who had rid him in his youth ; | |||
| and Pytholaus slew Alexander of Pherae. Periander tyrant | |||
| of the Ambraciotes asked his minion, whether he were | |||
| not yet with child ; which the lad took so heinously that | |||
| he stabbed him. | |||

| '''Oh Who Is That Young Sinner'''<br> | |||
| Oh who is that young sinner with the handcuffs on his wrists?<br> | |||
| And what has he been after that they groan and shake their fists?<br> | |||
| And wherefore is he wearing such a conscience-stricken air?<br> | |||
| Oh they're taking him to prison for the colour of his hair.<br> | |||
| 'Tis a shame to human nature, such a head of hair as his;<br> | |||
| In the good old time 'twas hanging for the colour that it is;<br> | |||
| Though hanging isn't bad enough and flaying would be fair<br> | |||
| For the nameless and abominable colour of his hair.<br> | |||
| Oh a deal of pains he's taken and a pretty price he's paid<br> | |||
| To hide his poll or dye it of a mentionable shade;<br> | |||
| But they've pulled the beggar's hat off for the world to see and stare,<br> | |||
| And they're haling him to justice for the colour of his hair.<br> | |||
| Now 'tis oakum for his fingers and the treadmill for his feet<br> | |||
| And the quarry-gang on Portland in the cold and in the heat,<br> | |||
| And between his spells of labour in the time he has to spare<br> | |||
| He can curse the God that made him for the colour of his hair.<br> | |||
