- # VENYS AND AQONIS.
But lo from forth a copp's that neighbors by,
A breeding lennet, lustie, young, and proud,
Adonis trampling Courser doth espy:
And forth the rulhes, snorts, and neighs aloud.
The strong-neckt steed being tied vnto a tree,
Breaketh his raine, and to her straight goes hee.
Imperiously he leaps, he neighs, he bounds,
And now his wouen girthes he breaks asunder,
The bearing earth with his hard hoofe he wounds,
VVhofe hollow wombe resounds like heauens thun-
The yron bit he crusheth tweene his teeth, (der,
Controlling what he was controlled with.
His eares vp prickt, his braided hanging mane
Vpon his compast crest now stand on end,
His nostrils drinke the aire, and forth againe
As from a fornace, vapors doth he send:
His eye which scornfully glisters like fire,
Shewes his hote courage, and his high desire.
Sometime he trots, as if he told the steps,
VVith gentle maiestie, and modest pride,
Anon he reres vpright, curuets, and leaps,
As who should say, lo thus my strength is tride.
And this I do, to captiuate the eye,
Of the saire breeder that is standing by.
VVhat
II. 259—282
