Whores and prostitutes



Introduction

"This may not have been expected, but the term "whore" ("pute in French) is employed several times. This section will later regroup other professions as they appear in the Centuries.

The criteria for regrouping the quatrains are based on some identified keywords."

Whores and prostitutes

Prostitutes in the Centuries represent sin or joy depending on the case.

5.5  Whores
"Under the shadowy pretense of removing servitude,"
He will himself usurp the people and city:
"He will do worse because of the deceit of the young prostitute,"
Delivered in the field reading the false poem.

10.14  Whores
"Urnel Vaucile without a purpose on his own,"
"Bold, timid, through fear overcome and captured:"
"Accompanied by several pale whores,"
Convinced in the Carthusian convent at Barcelona.

1.41  Whores
The city is besieged and assaulted by night;
few have escaped; a battle not far from the sea.
"A woman faints with joy at the return of her son,"
poison in the folds of the hidden letters.
