    Wit's an unruly engine, wildly striking
    Sometimes a friend, sometimes the engineer:
    Hast thou the knack? pamper it not with liking;
    But if thou want it, buy it not too deare
    Many affecting wit beyond their power,
    Have got to be a deare fool for an houre.

And blow them at the moon.
