Upon the place beneath. It is twice blest:
It blesseth him that gives, and him that takes.

The thronèd monarch better than his crown.”

‘Twas wine or women, or some curse
But never made a poorer song
That you might have a heavier purse,
Nor gave loud service to a cause
That you might have a troop of friends.”
