    I never drank of Aganippe well,
    Nor ever did in shade of Tempe sit,
    And muses scorn with vulgar brains to dwell;
    Poor layman I, for sacred rites unfit.
    Some do I hear of poets’ fury tell,
    But, God wot, wot not what they mean by it;
    And this I swear by blackest brook of hell,
    I am no pickpurse of another’s wit.
    —Sir Philip Sidney (1554–1586)

    I stick my neck out for nobody. I’m the only cause I’m interested in.

    The wand is will; thou, fancy, saddle art,
    Girt fast by memory; and while I spur
    My horse, he spurs with sharp desire my heart;
