Book I, 32: On Daniel in the Den
From Divine Fancies (1633), Book I
Religion
Fierce Lyons roaring for their prey? and then
Daniel throwne in? And Daniel yet remaine
Alive? There was a Lyon, in the Denne,
Was Daniels friend, or Daniel had bin slaine:
Among ten thousand Lyons, Ide not feare,
Had I but only Daniels Lyon there.
