16. Upon the Hunts-Man Carpophorus.
Can Meleager, Glory in his Boar;What may Carpophorus, who dares do more?
His furbisht spear, did bore a deadly hole,
In that Bears Heart; known to the Arctick Pole.
One of his Trophyes, is a Lions skin;
As large as that, Alcides vapour'd in.
A vaulting Libard, was by his hand slain:
And these, (though wonders) He can do again.
