In this fifth Æglogue, under the person of two shepheards, Piers and
Palinode, be represented two forms of Pastors or Ministers, or the
Protestant and the Catholic; whose chief talk standeth in reasoning,
whether the life of the one must be like the other; with whom having
shewed, that it is dangerous to maintain any fellowship, or give too
much credit to their colourable and feigned good-will, he telleth him a
tale of the Fox, that, by such a counterpoint of craftiness, deceived
and devoured the credulous Kid.
