A _Fox_ and a _Lyon_.
A _Fox_ had the hap to fall into the Walk of a _Lyon_; (the First of the
Kind that ever he saw) and he was ready to Drop down at the very sight of
him. He came a While after, to see Another, and was Frighted still; but
Nothing to What he was Before. It was his Chance, after This, to Meet a
Third _Lyon_; and he had the Courage, Then, to Accost him, and to make a
kind of an Acquaintance with him.
The MORAL of the Two FABLES above.
_Novelty Surprizes us, and we have Naturally a Horror for Uncouth
Mis-shapen Monsters; but ’tis Our Ignorance that Staggers us, for upon
Custom and Experience, All These Buggs grow Familiar, and Easy to us._
