[2400]One strangely did desire the tails of apes

Steepèd in juice of myrtles, holms, and beeches.

Some palates must be fed with implumed quails,

And nothing must approach this tongue but rails.

Some longed for crayfish, shrimps, cods, plaice, and oysters;

One for a lemon that doth grow on thorns;

Another longeth for some blood of roisters,

Spiced with the scrapings of pale Cynthia's horns;

One on the bosom of the matron skips,

And spite of her full nose did gnaw her lips;
