When With A Knife Chaste Lucrece Stabd Her Side Poem by John Ashmore

When With A Knife Chaste Lucrece Stabd Her Side



When with a knife chaste Lucrece stabd her side,
And streams of blood thence gushed-forth, she cry'd,
My spirit in Heaven, my blood shall witness heer,
That I from staines of Chastity am cleer.
How well will these, brought for me, plead and prove;
This with the Ghosts, that with the Gods above!
