    Poor old Jonathan Bing
    Went home and addressed a short note to the King:
    If you please will excuse me
    I won’t come to tea;
    For home’s the best place for
    All people like me!
    —Beatrice Curtis Brown (1901–1974)

    But since Thy loud-tongu’d Blood demands Supplies,
    More from BriareusHands, than Argus Eyes,
    I’ll tune Thy Elegies to Trumpet-sounds,
    And write Thy Epitaph in Blood and Wounds!
    —James Graham Marquess of Montrose (1612–1650)
