La Cité vieille, & Parme trop nastive,
Florence & Sienne rendront plus desertes.
English.
The fained and seducing holiness,
Accompanied with a fluent tongue,
Shall cause the old City, and too hasty Parma,
Florence and Sienna to be more desert.
ANNOT.
I know not what he means by the old City, unless it be Rome, by reason of its antiquity.
