How large into the tiny fly
Must little things appear
A rosebud like a feather bud
It's a prickle like a spear.
A drew drop like a looking glass,
A hair like a golden wire,
The smallest grain of mustard - seed
As fierce as coals of fire.
A loaf of bread, a lofty hill,
A wasp, a cruel leopard
And specks of salt as bright to see
As lambkins to a shepherd.
