Progermination, budding out.
Itchless, i.e., with no itch for bribes.

746. TO ELECTRA. LOVE LOOKS FOR LOVE.
Love love begets, then never be
Unsoft to him who's smooth to thee.

Softness in others, will be kind;
Affection will affection move,
Then you must like because I love.

747. REGRESSION SPOILS RESOLUTION.
Hast thou attempted greatness? then go on:
Back-turning slackens resolution.

748. CONTENTION.
Discreet and prudent we that discord call
That either profits, or not hurts at all.
