HEARE HANNO standes, and lookes into the skye, And feedes him selfe, with hope of future praise: Vnto his birdes, he dothe his eare applie, And trustes in tyme, that they his name should raise: For they weare taughte, before they flewe abrode, Longe tyme to saie, that HANNO was a God. But, when the birdes from bondage weare releast, And in the woodes, with other birdes weare ioin'de, Then HANNOS name, theire woonted lesson ceaste, For eache did singe, accordinge to his kinde: Then flee this faulte, Ambition workes our shame, And vertue loue, which doth extoll our name. Aelian de var. Histor. lib. 14. cap. 30.
