“In pious times, ere priest-craft did begin, Before polygamy was made a sin; When man, on many, multipli'd his kind, Ere one to one was cursedly confin'd: When Nature prompted, and no Law deni'd Promiscuous use of concubine and bride; Then, Israel's monarch, after Heaven's own heart, His vigorous warmth did variously impart To wives and slaves: and, wide as his command, Scatter'd his Maker's image through the land.” MenHeartKindMadeUseLawHeavenSinWifeLandSlaveIsraelWideCommandCraftsPriestsMakersWarmthBridesVigorousPiousImpartMonarchsPolygamyPromiscuousConcubines Author:John Dryden
