    The rulers of the earth are all worth knowing; they suggest moral reflections: and the respect that one naturally has for God’s vice-regents here on earth is greatly increased by acquaintance with them.

    And eke the heavy plight
    Of me, that wonted to rejoice
    The fortunes of my pleasant choice.
