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.
