Of a Hare taken by a Dog-fishe.
The sentyng hounds pursude,the hastie Hare of foote:
The selie beast to scape the Dogges,
did iumpe vppon a roote:
[51]
from cliffe to Seas he fell:
Then cride the Hare, vnhappie me,
for now perceiue I well
Bothe lande and sea pursue,
and hate the hurtlesse Hare:
And eke the dogged skie alofte,
if so the dog be theare.
