    A sheephook, or have learn’d ought else the least
    That to the faithful herdman’s art belongs!
    What recks it them? What need they? They are sped.
    And when they list their lean and flashy songs
    Grate on their scrannel pipes of wretched straw,
    The hungry sheep look up, and are not fed,”
    —John Milton (1608–1674)
