Not poppy, nor mandragora, Nor all the drowsy syrups of the world, Shall ever medicine thee to that sweet sleep Which thou owedst yesterday.

As the lowly shrub is to the lofty cedar, Or a molehill to Olympus, if compard, I am to you, Sir.

That, like a testy babe, will scratch the nurse, And presently, all humbled, kiss the rod.
