    And through the hall there walked to and fro
    A jolly yeoman, marshall of the same,
    Whose name was Appetite; he did bestow
    Both guestes and meate, whenever in they came,
    And knew them how to order without blame.

My forces are not enfeebled, I find no decay in my strength; my
provisions are not cut off, I read more

My forces are not enfeebled, I find no decay in my strength; my
provisions are not cut off, I find no abhorring in mine appetite;
my counsels are not corrupted nor infatuated, I find no false

that invisibly, and I feel that insensibly, the disease prevails.
