Diana of George of Montemayor | ||
A Riddle.
[Shew me a horse of such a kinde]
Shew
me a horse of such a kinde,
That in the strangest fashion
Doth neuer eate, but of the winde
Doth take his sustentation:
Winged before, and wing'd behinde:
Strange things he doth, and wondrous deeds:
That in the strangest fashion
Doth neuer eate, but of the winde
Doth take his sustentation:
Winged before, and wing'd behinde:
Strange things he doth, and wondrous deeds:
And when he runs his race,
Vpon his brest with haste he speedes.
His reines with maruellous grace
Come from his sides that neuer bleedes.
And in his course he doth not faile,
If rightly he doth wag his taile.
Vpon his brest with haste he speedes.
His reines with maruellous grace
Come from his sides that neuer bleedes.
And in his course he doth not faile,
If rightly he doth wag his taile.
