“I was with Hercules and Cadmus once,
When in a wood of Crete they bayed the bear
With hounds of Sparta: never did I hear
Such gallant chiding; for besides the groves,
The skies, the fountains, every region near
Seemed all one mutual cry. I never heard
So musical a discord, such sweet thunder.”

The lack of liberty, the squeeze of the law
And discipline should be in school and state....”

That she is under ban
Of all good men and women,
Being mentioned with a man
That has the worst of all bad names.”
