And th' one of them doth prune the other's feather.

Smit with her varying plumage, spare the dove?
Admires the jay the insect's gilded wings?
Or hears the hawk when Philomela sings?

A falcon, now tow'ring in her pride of place,
Was by a mousing owl hawked at and killed.

And till she stoop she must not be full-gorged,
For then she never looks upon her lure.
