First Miracle.
Ye Mortalls (if beleife be in yee)Come see confirm'd what's said by Pliny;
And first (for feare ye should mistake a)
Give eare unto Antoaius Daca.
With whom consents (to bring the Rime on)
A Trusty Author, Petrus Simon.
These two are back'd (in spight of Praters)
By ours and Hollands Navigators.
Now these avouch, that India beares,
Men of so vast prodigious Eares,
That sundry of them may be found,
Whose hearing-Organs sweepe the ground.
2
By length of Eares to save his broomes.
Sure 'tis an uncouth sight to see some,
That sweepe their Hall without a Beesome.
Besides their Eares, as they relate,
Are of that breadth, from foote to pate,
That under each (and none descry)
Six men may (like six Eare-wiggs) lye.
'Tis pretty faire when Eares are found,
That conceale men, as ours doe sound.
Our Eares (alas) take but mens speeches,
But these take men, doublet and breeches.
The Round-head when his Eares he sees
Finds he is but an Asse to these.
