The many musits through the which he goes,

Are like a labyrinth to amaze his foes.

"Sometime he runs among a flock of sheep,

To make the cunning hounds mistake their smell,

And sometime where earth-delving conies keep,

To stop the loud pursuers in their yell,

And sometime sorteth with a herd of deer;

Danger deviseth shifts, wit waits on fear:

"For there his smell with others being mingled,

The hot scent-snuffing hounds are driven to doubt,
