It so falls out
That what we have we prize not to the worth
Whiles we enjoy read more

Whiles we enjoy it; but being lacked and lost,

Its source one tyrant passion draws,
Till mastering all within.

And many talk of Little John that never did read more

Many talk of Robin Hood that never shot his bow,
And many talk of Little John that never did him know.
