Toby. I perceive Horace speaketh of one sort of fools, which fear great danger where there is none, and with great trembling are afraid of their own shadow.
Tobie. I perceiue Horace speaketh of one sorte of fooles, which feare great danger where there is none, and with greate trembling are afraid of their own shadow.
Jerome. There is a proverb of those that fear their own shadow: but contrariwise there are other fools, that fear no danger, though they see it before their eyes or be warned of it. There is neither friend nor foe shall counsel them, or dissuade them: but they will headlong throw them selves into present mischief, and will not change their mind, though all the world had sworn nay.
Ierom. There is a prouerb of those that feare their owne shadowe: but contrariwise there are other fooles, that feare no daunger, though thei see it before their eyes or bee warned of it. There is neither freende nor foe shall councell them, or diswade them: but thei will headlong throw them selues into present mischeefe, and will not chaunge their mynde, though all the worlde had sworne naie.
Toby. But I do well understand what Horace meaneth, by talking of Fuse, Ilion, and Catien.
