Contre ceulx qui osent entreprendre oultre
leur force.
Quand Hercules dort soubz l’arbre, & repose,
Et soubz son bras armes, & masse pose,
Des nains armée à le tuer s’efforce,[1]
Mal cognoissans leur trop petitte force:
Luy esveillé, comme petitte pulce
Dedans la peau du Lyon les repulse.[2]
À plus fort que soy ne se fault prendre.
