Similies on the same subiect.
AS Lyons are discerned by their pawes,
So hatefull men are by their qualities.
As enuie braggeth and can draw no blood,
So hate in stead of hurt, oft doth men good.
As greenest wood lies long before it burne,
So hate stands watching till fit time to harme.
As blindnes, led by blindnes, needs must fall,
So hate, vrg'de on by hate, harmes least of all.
As children for their faults haue slye excuses,
So hates smooth lookes hide very foule abuses.
As crauen Cocks make shew, yet dare not fight,
So hate makes proffers, when he dares nor bite.
