The secret schemer, taking pleasure in fraud and stealth, is own brother to the fox.

The passionate man, phrenzied with rage, we might believe to be animated with the soul of a lion.

The coward and runaway, afraid where no fear is, may be likened to the timid deer.

He who is sunk in ignorance and stupidity lives like a dull ass.

He who is light and inconstant, never holding long to one thing, is for all the world like a bird.
