BEHOWLDE the craftie foxe, Vppon Danubius plaies, What time throwgh froste, both man, and beaste, Thereon did make their waies. At lengthe, with PHOEBVS beames, The froste began to slake: So that the yce with swelling streame, To sundrie peeces brake. Where, on a peece the foxe, Doth to his tackling stande: And in the sighte of Regenspurge, Came driuing by the Lande. At which, the townesmen laugh'de, And saied, this foxe, on Ice: Doth shewe, no subtill crafte will serue, When Chaunce doth throwe the dice. Regitur fatis mortale genus: Nec sibi quisquam spondere potest Firmum, & stabile: perque casus Voluitur varios semper nobis Metuenda dies, &c. Seneca in Oed.
