“Ithe commonwealth I would by contraries
Execute all things; for no kind of traffic
Would I admit; no name of magistrate;

And use of service, none; contract, succession,
Bourn, bound of land, tilth, vineyard, none;
No use of metal, corn, or wine, or oil;
No occupation; all men idle, all,
And women too, but innocent and pure.”
—William Shakespeare (15641616)
