Thus, I set pen to paper with delight, And quickly had my thoughts in black and white. For length and breadth, the bigness which you see. Thus I thought fit to put it to the test. I further thought, if now I did deny Those that would have it, thus to gratify. Yet, since your brethren pleased with it be, Forbear to judge till you do further see.

Yet there's none of these Will make him master of what fowls he please. Yet, if he does so, that bird he will miss. Yet loath Will any sober man be to find fault With them, lest he be found for to assault The highest wisdom. My dark and cloudy words, they do but hold The truth, as cabinets enclose the gold. That truths to this day in such mantles be.
