"Thus may we see the High and Mighty fall,
For cruel Death shews no Respect at all,
To any one of high or low Degree,
Great Men submit to Death as well as we.
Tho' they are gay, their lives are but a Span,
A Lump of Clay, so vile a Creature's Man."

My copy of Romance of Reynard arrives soon. I am going to end up significantly more insufferable than before. I will make connections never made before. I will book post. I will make you sick of it. I will make you eat your neighbour.
