    This day she was both pantler, butler, cook,

    Would sing her song and dance her turn, now here
    At upper end o’the table, now i’the middle,
    On his shoulder, and his, her face afire
    With labor, and the thing she took to quench it
    She would to each one sip.”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Of Progress round and round in circles
    From King to Mob to King to Mob to King
    Until the eddy of it eddies out.””
