Thou shalt not see't, lose not thy Raies

Of Cats and Tygers, Dogs and Kine.

Vultur and Scorpion, Ferret, Quail.
Porpuse and Sea-Horse, Tortoise, Snite,
Hedghog and Hern, Raven and Kite.

Crane, Goss-hawk and Pelican.
Crab, Elephant, Mouse, Goose and Gander,
Cameleon and Salamander.
Pismire and Camel, Mullet, Flare,
Dolphin and Shark, Lizard and Hare.
Fox and Baboon, Stork and Ospray,
Fesant, Beetle, and Popinjay.
Spider and Cock, Swallow and Pye,
Parrat and Tit, Eagle and Flye.
Monky and Squirrel, Otter, Doe,
Hyena, Crocadile and Roe.
Griffon, Leopard and Cockatrice,

All these, with other mixed Forms
Of Antick Fowls, Beasts, Fishes, Worms:
Each in their fearful Troops are clustered,
In horrid Squadrons rang'd and mustred.
