    Education makes a people easy to lead, but difficult to drive; easy to govern but impossible to enslave.

    From foul to fair, from better hap to worse.

    She draws her favours to the lowest ebb;
    Her tides have equal times to come and go,
    Her loom doth weave the fine and Coarsest web;
