Here lies our sovereign lord the king,
Whose word no man relies on;
He never says a foolish thing,
Nor ever does a wise one.
Whose word no man relies on;
He never says a foolish thing,
Nor ever does a wise one.
John Wilmot, 2nd Earl of Rochester
Huddled in dirt the reasoning engine lies,
Who was so proud, so witty and so wise.
Who was so proud, so witty and so wise.
John Wilmot, 2nd Earl of Rochester
Here lies a great and mighty king
Whose promise none relies on;
He never said a foolish thing,
Nor ever did a wise one.
Whose promise none relies on;
He never said a foolish thing,
Nor ever did a wise one.
John Wilmot, 2nd Earl of Rochester
Most Men are Cowards, all Men should be Knaves.
The Difference lies, as far as I can see,
Not in the thing it self, but the Degree.
The Difference lies, as far as I can see,
Not in the thing it self, but the Degree.
