Surly: What paper?

Mammon: On cedar board.

Surly: O that, indeed, they say,

Will last ’gainst worms.

Mammon: ’Tis like your English wood

’Gainst cobwebs. I have a piece of Jason’s fleece too,

which was no other than a book of alchemy,

Writ in large sheepskin, a good fat ram-vellum.

Such was Pythagoras’ thigh, Pandora’s tub,

And all that fable of Medea’s charms,
