    a notable prince that was called King John;

    We have been able to have fine poetry in England because the public do not read it, and consequently do not influence it. The public like to insult poets because they are individual, but once they have insulted them, they leave them alone.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    My heart is set.
    All goodly sport
    For my comfort
    Who shall me let?
