“Ay, in the catalogue ye go for men,
As hounds and greyhounds, mongrels, spaniels, curs,
Shoughs, water-rugs, and demi-wolves, are clept
All by the name of dogs.”

three-leggèd, scared,
but tarries nearby and will
return. A friend.”

There is nobody wise enough
To find out all that is in it,
For he would be thinking of love
Till the stars had run away”
