These quenche the worthy flames of noble kynde,

Prouoking best borne to the basest vices:

Through crafts they make the bouldest courage blind,

Disliking highly valiant enterprises,

And praysing vily, villanous deuices:

These make the bore a hog, the bull an oxe,

The swan a goose, the lyon a wolfe or foxe.
