    They vented their complainings, which being answered
    And a petition granted them, a strange one,
    To break the heart of generosity,
    And make bold power look pale, they threw their caps
    As they would hang them on the horns o' th' moon,
    Shouting their emulation.

The water of my land, find her disease,
And purge it to read more

The water of my land, find her disease,
And purge it to a sound and pristine health,
I would applaud thee to the very echo,
That should applaud you again.
