eng Chaucer 1343-1400 A.D.For yif thou loke wel up-on the body of a wight, what thing shalt thou finde more freele than is mankinde ; the whiche men wel ofte ben slayn with bytinge of smale flyes, or elles with the entringe of crepinge wormes in-to the privetees of mannes body ?
eng Elizabeth 1593 A.D.But what if ye haue respect to the body? what can be weaker than man, whom somtyme
the byt of a flye, somtyme the passage into any secret parte may destroye?
