“Me of my lawful pleasure she restrained,
And prayed me oft forbearance; did it with
A pudency so rosy the sweet view on’t
Might well have warmed old Saturn; that I thought her
As chaste as unsunned snow.”

a lady of evil luck
desiring to be what you are not,
longing to be
what you can only visit.”
