heart rules head... or head rules heart

[Quizmonster]

In modern English, to pander means to pimp...ie to provide the means of satisfying the passions. So, "reason panders will" means that - when you are influenced by love/lust - you can convince yourself that what you want to do is what you should do.

[heathfield]

O strange excuse - When reason is the bawd to lust's abuse
