William Shakespeare
I pray thee cease thy counsel, Which falls into mine ears as profitless as water in a sieve.
William Shakespeare
An honest tale speeds best being plainly told.
William Shakespeare
Up and down, up and down I will lead them up and down I am feared in field in town Goblin, lead them up and down
