BEETLES
[ Also see Insects ]

O'er folded blooms
  On swirls of musk,
    The beetle booms adown the glooms
      And bumps along the dusk.
      - James Whitcomb Riley, The Beetle

To apprehend thus
  Draws us a profit from all things we see,
    And often, to our comfort, shall we find
      The sharded beetle in a safer hold
        Than is the full-winged eagle.
      - William Shakespeare, Cymbeline
         (Belarius at III, iii)

The sense of death is most in apprehension,
  And the poor beetle that we tread upon
    In corporal sufferance finds a pang as great
      As when a giant dies.
      - William Shakespeare, Measure for Measure
         (Isabella at III, i)

The sense of death is most in apprehension.
      - William Shakespeare, Measure for Measure
         (Isabella at III, i)
