It Is A Familiar Beast To Man,

What Drink'st Thou Oft, Instead Of Homage Sweet, But Poisoned Flattery?

Remuneration! O! That's The Latin Word For Three Farthings

He Is Well Paid That Is Well Satisfied.

Gnarling Sorrow Hath Less Power To Bite The Man That Mocks At It And Sets It Light.

Promising Is The Very Air O' Th' Time; It Opens The Eyes Of Expectation. Performance Is Ever Duller For His Act; And, But In The Plainer And Simpler Kind Of People, The Deed Of Saying Is Quite Out Of Use. To Promise Is Most Courtly And Fashionable; Performance Is A Kind Of Will Or Testament Which Argues A Great Sickness In His Judgment That Makes It.
