Note 46 — Chapter II · ON PEDICATION
Reading edition

“Now Lyciscus holds me in love-bonds, from which neither friendly advice, nor humiliating affronts avail to liberate me.”
And Satires, I., ii, v. 116-119.
“When your privates are swelling, if some maid-servant or slave-boy is at hand for you to assail forthwith, do you choose rather to burst with desire? Nay! not I!”
