19 Hast thou geue the horse his strength, or learned him to ney coragiously? 20 Canst thou make him afrayde as a grashopper? where as the stoute neying that he maketh is fearefull. 21 He breaketh the grounde with the hooffes of his feete, he reioyceth cherefully in his strength, and runneth to meete the harnest men. 22 He layeth aside all feare, his stomacke is not abated, neither starteth he backe for any sworde. 23 Though the quiuers rattle vpon him, though the speare and shielde glister: 24 Yet rusheth he in fiercely beating the grounde, he thinketh it not the noyse of the trumpettes: 25 But when the trumpettes make most noyse, he saith, tushe, for he smelleth the battaile a farre of, the noyse of the captaines and the shouting. 26 Commeth it through thy wysdome that the Goshauke flieth toward the south? 27 Doth the Egle mount vp, and make his nest on hye at thy comaundement? 28 He abydeth in stony rockes, and dwelleth vpon the hye toppes of moutaines: 29 From whence he seeketh his praye, and loketh farre about with his eyes. 30 His young ones also sucke vp blood: and where any dead body lyeth, there is he.
