Myght catche thé in theyr pawes,
And gnawe thé in theyr iawes!
The[357] serpentes[358] of Lybany 290
Myght stynge thé venymously!
The dragones with their tonges
Might poyson thy lyuer and longes!
The mantycors of the montaynes
Myght fede them on thy braynes!
Melanchates, that hounde
That plucked Acteon to the grounde,
