17. Cæsarem vehis, & Fortunam ejus.
In a black Storm, when Hail-stones fell in crouds;And Hector Boreas, chas'd the ruffled clouds;
Cæsar was in a Pinnace, void of Fear:
Although the Water-man, conceiv'd Death near:
You silly Boat-swain! If Neptune would drown,
The Earth's great Master, he would spare his own.
