Pàgina 66 - The merlin cannot ever soar on high, Nor greedy greyhound still pursue the chase ; The tender lark will find a time to fly, And fearful hare to run a quiet race. He that high growth on cedars did bestow, Gave also lowly mushrooms leave to grow. In Haman's pomp poor Mardocheus wept, Yet God did turn his fate upon his foe.

And now, if an angel from heaven should come down and teach me any other doctrine than that which I learnt as a child, I would not believe him. Take me ; cut me to pieces, joint from joint. Burn — hang— do what you will — I will be true henceforth to my faith.
