Book II, 93: On MORVS
From Divine Fancies (1633), Book II
Religion
If a poore timorous Hare but crosse the way,
Morus will keepe his chamber all the day;
What Evill ortends it, Morus? It does show,
That Morus is not wise, for thinking so.
But Morus keepes his Chamber: There will be,
Morus, one Foole the loe abroad by Thee.
