| QUOTATION: | Some force whole regions, in despite O’ geography, to change their site; Make former times shake hands with latter, And that which was before come after. But those that write in rhyme still make The one verse for the other’s sake; For one for sense, and one for rhyme, I think ’s sufficient at one time. |
