[illustration]

Whilst the quick forder, fought wth busy skill
A stock Dove on a neighbouring tree to kill.
An Adder lurking in ye grass beneath

His death did with a fatall bite bequeath
Who now from his assaulted heart did Feel••
Whilst he ey'd her the viper ey'd his heele

Thus oft those ills y^t. wee for others spread, Vpon our selves by equall fate are shed.
