I am but a Wolf, born to be free,
This should be clear, for all to see,
I want nothing, but what is rightfully mine,
Decreed as such, since the beginning of time.
I hold no anger, yet man I fear,
For man destroys, yet sheds no tear,
For how can I, have respect for you,
With all the destruction, that man can do.

“‘Thou art none of mine, brother Lazarus,
That lies begging at my gate.

“‘O opportunity! thy guilt is great,
‘Tis thou that execut’st the traitor’s treason;
Thou set’st the wolf where he the lamb may get;
Whoever plots the sin, thou point’st the season;
‘Tis thou that spurn’st at right, at law, at reason;
And in thy shady cell, where none may spy him,
Sits Sin to seize the souls that wander by him.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
