Yea, though thou fall upon the dust
When they who help thee turn in

small birds come i'll their mouth and
pick them off and will not heart them.
The shark can live in water and on land.
Going from England to Indiad, you will
see sharks in the nile, they will follow
ships for many miles on purpose to get
some meat, and then perhaps no get
any. They are different kinds of sharks,

"The shark is a very curious animal,
it can lay its teeth down when not
catching any food.
