XXVIII.

Raise but an arm! 't will brush their web away,

And without that, their poison and their claws

Are useless. Mind, good people! what I say—

(Or rather Peoples)—go on without pause!

The web of these Tarantulas each day

Increases, till you shall make common cause:

None, save the Spanish Fly and Attic Bee,

As yet are strongly stinging to be free.[JB]
