LXIV. Upon our being so afraid of small Creatures.
Man by Creation was made Lord of all,
But now he is become an Underling;
He thought he should a gained by his Fall,
But lost his Head-ship over ev'ry thing.

What! What! A humane Creature and afraid
Of Frogs, Dogs, Cats, Rats, Mice, or such like Creature?
This fear of thine has fully thee betraid,
Thou art Back-slid from God, to him a Traytor.

How by his Fall is stately Man decay'd?
Nor is it in his hand now to renew him,
Of things dismaid, at him, he is afraid;
Worms, Lice, Flies, Mice; Yea Vanities subdue him.
