76

Priapus

Per medios ibit pueros mediasque puellas
mentula, barbatis non nisi summa petet.

Right through the middle of lads and of lasses a passage shall pierce
This yard, yet shall it touch bearded ones only aloft.

Through the middles of lads and girls will my mentule make its way; those bearded 'twill not attack save at the height.

[1. The courtesan's coynte being jocosely termed an altar.]
