English text
The Eagles force subdues each Bird that flyes:
What mettall may resist the flaming fire?
Doth not the Sunne dazell the clearest eyes?
And melt the yse, and make the frost retire?
Who can withstand a puissant Kings desire?
The stiffest stones are pierced through with tooles:
The wisest are with Princes made but fooles.
