A _Bull_ and a _Mouse_.
A _Mouse_ Pinch’d a _Bull_ by the Foot, and then slunk into her Hole.
The _Bull_ Tears up the Ground upon’t, and Tosses his Head in the Air,
looking about, in a Rage, for his Enemy, but sees None. As he was in the
Height of his Fury, the _Mouse_ puts out her Head, and Laughs at him.
Your Pride (says she) may be brought down I see, for all Your Blustering,
and your Horns; for here’s a Poor _Mouse_ has got the Better of ye, and
You do not know how to Help your self.
The MORAL.
_There’s no such way of Revenging an Affront upon a Creature that’s below
an Honest Man’s Anger, as Neglect and Contempt._
