Quanto sia dannosa la gola.
How harmful greed is.
Il Topo avezzo a roder le vivande,
Un di mal di mangiar satio e contento
Un’Ostriga
trovo capace e
grande,
Che a caso tenea aperto il monumento.
Ei v’entra
audace, e
cerca in quelle bande:
Ella tosto si chiude, e’l
serra drento.
Cosi la
gola’che
meschin condusse,
A perpetua prigion sciocco l’addusse.

Sopra i Parasiti.
On Parasites.
Gli Astici, che per far al ricco honore
Porta l’huom,
che polito e ornato vedi.
Son conformi al goloso Adulatore,
Lungo
hanno il corpo, e aguzze branche e piedi,
Gliocchi vivaci e aperti a tutte l’hore:
Cosi è ripieno, e par che sempre chiedi
Il ventre loro; e ne conviti
vanno
Mordendo ognuno, e sempre accorti stanno.
