    Thanks, thanks to thee, my worthy friend,

    Thus on its sounding anvil shaped
    Each burning deed and thought!

    I draw the sword myself; take it, and hit
    The innocent mansion of my love, my heart.
    Fear not, ‘tis empty of all things but grief.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Bless your heart, they don’t mind—they’re exceedingly
    kind—
    They don’t blame you—as long as you’re funny!

    For now the moon with friendless light carouses
    On hill and housetop, street and marketplace,
    Men will plunge, mile after mile of men,
    To crush this lucent madness of the face....
