Let me tell you, Cassius, you yourself
Are much condemned to have an itching palm,
To sell and mart your offices for gold

And bend our conscience to our dealing.
The Ten Commandments will not budge
And stealing will continue stealing.

--To live
On means not yours--be brave in silks and laces,
Gallant in steeds; splendid in banquets; all
Not yours. Given, uninherited, unpaid for;
This is to be a trickster; and to filch
Men's art and labour, which to them is wealth,
Life, daily bread;--quitting all scores with "friend,
You're troublesome!" Why this, forgive me,
Is what, when done with a less dainty grace,
Plain folks call "Theft."

For she sitteth at the door of her house, on a seat in the high
places of the city,

wanteth understanding, she saith to him,
Stolen waters are sweet, and bread eaten in secret is pleasant.

He that is robbed, not wanting what is stol'n,
Let him not know't, and he's not robbed at all.

The robbed that smiles steals something from the thief,
He robs himself that spends a bootless grief.
