    “a notable prince that was called King John;

    “What was I saying? An Egyptian king
    Once touched long fingers, which are not anything.”

    “Most writers steal a good thing when they can,
    And when ‘tis safely got ‘tis worth the winning.
    The worst of ‘t is we now and then detect ‘em,
    Before they ever dream that we suspect ‘em.”
    —Bryan Waller Proctor (1787–1874)
