    Worship and birth to me are known
    By look, by bearing, and by tone,
    Not by furred robe, or broidered zone.

Can censure 'scape; back-wounding calumny
The whitest virtue strikes. What king read more

The whitest virtue strikes. What king so strong
Can tie the gall up in the slanderous tongue?
