IF of thy foe, thow doest a gifte receaue, Esteeme it not, for feare the fates doe lower, And with the gifte, ofte tyme thie life doe reaue, Yea giftes wee reade, haue suche a secret power, That oftentimes, they LYNCEVS eies doe blinde, And he that giues, the taker faste doth binde. To AIAX heare, a sworde did HECTOR sende, A girdle stronge, to him did AIAX yeelde, With HECTORS gifte, did AIAX woorke his ende, And AIAX gifte, hal'de HECTOR throughe the fielde: Of mortall foes, then see noe gifte thow take, Althoughe a while, a truce with them thow make. - aut vlla putatis Dona carere dolis Danaum, &c. Sic titulo obsequij, quae mittunt hostibus hostes Munera, venturi praescia fata ferunt Laocoon apud Virgilium lib. Aeneid. 2. Sic de equo, loquitur Troianis. Alciat. .
