For they cast downe euery man his rod, and they turned to serpentes: but Aarons rodde did eate vp their roddes.

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge references in Bishops.
Yea, that thou mourne not at the last, when thou hast spent thy bodye and lustie youth, and then say:
The crowne of the pryde of the drunken Ephraemites shalbe troden vnder foote:
They breede cockatrice egges, and weaue the spiders webbe, who so eateth of their egges, dyeth: but if one treade vpon them, there commeth vp a serpent.
Moreouer, I wyll sende cockatrices and serpentes among you (whiche wyl not be charmed) and they shall bite you, saith the Lorde.
And though they hyde them selues in the top of Charmel, I will searche, and take them out thence: and though they be hyd from my sight in the bottome of the sea, thence will I commaunde the serpent, and he shall bite them.
What fruite had ye then in those thynges, wherof ye are nowe ashamed? For the ende of those thynges, is death.
