“Some men have a necessity to be mean, as if they were exercising a faculty which they had to partially neglect since early childhood.”

As proud Windsor, Where I in lust and joy
With a king’s son my childish years did pass
In greater feast than Priam’s sons of Troy?
Where each sweet place returns a taste full sour;”
