The Frogs to the Sunne. Fab. 6.
AESop saw very sumptuous marri∣ages of his neighbour a most no∣torious cunning thiefe, and forth∣with begun to tell this tale: once it was reported that the Sunne would marry a wife; then the Frogs tooke up a piteous cry even to the heavens: Jupiter moved with their bitter ex∣claimes, enquireth the reason of their complaint, then a certaine in∣habitant of the pond said, Oh deare Soveraigne, now one Sunne burneth up all our lakes, and causeth us poore wretches, to die on dry ground, alas, what will become of us, if the Sunne beget more Sunnes?
