FEARE

For Feare, and Fiends are Cussen-Germans
And Partners in the same Determents,
Apparreld in the same Disguise
Of Hornes and Tayles, and Sawcer eies.
Make Fancy Cut of[f] Child[r]ens Heads
Before they're Born, with sudden Dreads,
And more Impossibly, convey
The executed Part away.
Cowards, like Hot Iron Drencht,
Are hardend more, the more th'are quencht.
