SEINE

The Devil's Dictionary · 1911 · p. 322
n : A kind of net for effecting an involuntary change of environment. For fish it is made strong and coarse, but women are more easily taken with a singularly delicate fabric weighted with small, cut stones. The devil casting a seine of lace, (With precious stones twas weighted) Drew it into the landing place And its contents calculated. All souls of women were in that sack— A draft miraculous, precious! But ere he could throw it acro his back They’d all escaped through the meshes. Baruch de Loppis. 322
