Brethren and kinsfolk stand. Familiar friends

Frown on me as a stranger. They who dwell

In my own house and eat my bread, despise me.

I call'd my own tried servant, but he gave

No answer or regard. My maidens train'd

For household service, to perform my will

Count me an alien;—even with my wife

My voice hath lost its power. Young children rise

And push away my feet and mock my words.

Yea, the best loved, most garner'd in my heart
