Fab. VII. The two thirsty Frogs.
Two Frogs, who wanting Water, were constraind
Their antient Habitations to desert,
Made many a weary step, until at last
They in a deep Wells bottom water found.
Which seen, one said let us leap in and drink;
To whom the wiser Frog this answer made,
Let's look before we leap, for if the Drought
Should last, and water fail us in this Well,
How can we live here? how can we get out?

Should last, and water fail us in this Well,
How can we live here? how can we get out?
