But takes what part the great Stage Manager

Cast him for, when, the play was set afoot.

Remains we act ours—without private spite,

But still with spirit and fidelity,

As fits good actors: you I blame no whit

For nibbling cheese—simply I throw you down

Unblamed—nay, even morally assoiled,

To pussy there: blame thou not me for that."

Or say perhaps the girl is slow of wit,

Something inapt at ethics—why, then thus.
