and earth doth thunder with the cry When front to front these noble armies meete Loose wauing in the wind their ensignes flie With wounds and fatall blowes eche other greete The Mise assaile the Frogs the fight accept In combat close each host to other stept For now the wings had skirmish hot begun And with their battels forth like Lyons run But who was first amid this bloody fight That gaue the onset first first wanne renowne Croaking Hypsiboas first like a knight Lick-taile Lichenor brauely tumbled downe Into his paunch so strong he thrust his speare That forth his backe behind it did appeare Groueling the Mouse fell on the sandy plaine By this audacious Frog with valour slaine Next him Troglodytes which not afraid Each secret hole and corner creepeth in Gaue Pelion the Frog with aurt berayd A deadly foile with his small brazen pin Within the wound the iaueling sticketh sore And frō the veines forth streams the purple gore Thus to his end pale death this Frog did bring Which kils the caitife with the crowned king Pot-creeping Embasichytros of late Whose valiant sonne did all the Frogs defie Now quite confounded by disastrous fate Deuoid of life thy headles truncke doth lie At hardy Seutl●ns his crooked feet A Frog which feeds on nothing but the beete And clam rous Polyphon there lyes thou dead Slayne by Artophagus which eateth bread But when Limnocharis their deaths beheld Which in the marish hath his whole delight The angry Frog by loue and ire compeld To sad reuenge his pow'r and forces dight Life must be payd with life the Frog did cry Their deaths I will reuenge or with them dye Thus when true loue valour guide the heart A cowards hand will play a souldiers part And from the ground a milstone in great hast He raught strange wonders courage doth enact And with great violence the same he cast At proud Troglodites as one distract In middle of his necke the stone did light Whereby he sleepeth in eternall night Thus brused with the fall this Mouse did lye Suffring the torments of deaths tyranny Yong Lichenor his sonne that first was slaine A gallant Mouse which did no colours feare Desirous though with death renowne to gaine That his exploits ensuing times might heare Fierce butcher like Limnocharis espide Whose weapons were with bloud in scarlet dide To whom he said Fight coward or else flie Thou or Lichenor here shall surely die And with those words ayming his heart to hit Strongly his iaueling at the Frog he threw It pearst his side his brest and bowels split His vitall spirits from his body flew Dead lay Limnocharis vpon the playne The brauest souldier in the warrie trayne For death impartiall doth with one selfe hand Cut off the strong weak at heauens cōmand Crambophagus Eat-Colewort which of late Basely his armes and weapons cast away Thinking by flight to flie the stroke of fate Ran to the water from the mortall fray Whom Lichenor more swift then he pursude And in his harts warm bloud his speare imbru'd Vpon the shore the dastard Frog was slaine Ere he could leape into the running maine Heroicall Limnesus Fennie Lord Incensed by mad rage blacke furies brand The bold Tyroglyphus slew with the sword A great commander in the Mouses band Deepe holes and hollow caues he vsde to delue Among the Cheeses lying on the shelue His head the Frog doth from his necke aduance And in great triumph beares it on his lance Faint-hearted Calaminthius in great feare Little in stature and of courage small Beholding vast Pternoglyphus appeare A Mouse exceeding great strong bourly tall And which in bacon flitches holes doth make He doth his weapons with the field forsake And crauen-like fled to the durty bogs Euen as the feareful Hare pursude with dogs But bold Hydrocharis that loues the floud Famous for deeds of armes would neuer flie The furious Mouse this peerelesse Frog withstood Nor would he shun a foot though he should die Lately Pternophagon this gallant killed Which oft with Bacon hath his belly filled Now with a stone Pternoglyphus he slew Whose cloddred braines the crymson field imbrew Lichopinax which first told to the king The balefull newes of his sonnes tragedy At Borborocaetes did his darts still fling A valiant Frog though in the durt he lye Prostrate he fell vpon the sandy ground The Mouses dart had made a mortall wound Wherat pale death sent forth his fainting spright To sleepe in darknes and eternall night When this the Frog Prassophagus beheld Eat-Leeke Prassophagus swift as the Hynde He ranne with mighty stowre along the field And taking Gnissodioctes neat behind From off his feet the little Mouse he flong Into the streaming current all along Nor there he left him till with raging mood He had his foe estrangled in the flood Eat-crumme Psicharpax which was neere allide Vnto the kings yong sonne that earst was down'd In succour of his friends the Frogs defide And to the battell made him ready bound Durtie Pelusus in the paunch he thrust Faintly the Frog sunke downe into the dust Whose fluttring spirit did her passage make Downe to Auernus that vnpleasant lake Pelobates which loues to treade the myre Saw when his friend and fellow souldier fell And adding fuell to the smoking fire His furie into burning flames gan swell For filling both his hands with durtapace He cast it fiercely in Psicharpax face Which much besmeard his visage with disguise And almost blinded and put out his eyes But he the strong Psicharpax mou'd with spleene And iustly angrie at this beastly wrong Tooke vp a mighty stone which there had beene A bound or landmark tweene two neighbors long And hurling it with vigour and great power He burst his knee asunder in that stower The right leg fell dismembred from his thie And not once mouing on the ground doth lie Ne there he thought to leaue him in sad plight But with a iaueling would haue reft his life Had not Craugasides that croaking wight Whose chiefest pleasure is in brawling strife Kept off the blow and with a sudden push Thrust through the Mouse his belly with a rush Vpon the ground his bowels gushed forth Thus di'de this martial hart Mouse of worth Which when Eat-corne Sitophagus espide That erst was maymed of two legs in fight Washing his wounds along the water side And sore amazed at this rufull sight He dared not aduenture forth agayne Into the field for feare he should be slayne But leapt into the strong entrenched fort Where he receiued was in ioyfull sort Nethlesse the warlike troopes of eyther band Persisted still with courage in the field Great store lye slayne vpon the drenched sand Yet not for thy a souldier seemes to yeeld Now fury roares ire threats woe complains One weepes another cryes he sighes for paynes The hosts both clad in blood in dust and myre Had
