SIR SAMUEL TUKE
English author
(1610 - 1673)

He is a fool who thinks by force or skill,
  To turn the current of a woman's will.
      - Adventures of Five Hours
         (act V, sc. 3, l. 483),
        (translated from Calderon)
        [Women : Proverbs]

A fop? In this brave, licentious age
  To bring his musty morals on the stage?
    Rhime us to reason? and our lives redress
      In metre, as Druids did the savages.
      - The Adventures of Five Hours (act V)
        [Foppery]
