would the real lycidas2 at earthlink.net Smile for the people

[Terrance]

When time shall call him home from banishment,
        Whether our kinsman come to see his friends.
        Ourself and Bushy, Bagot here and Green
        Observed his courtship to the common people;
        How he did seem to dive into their hearts
        With humble and familiar courtesy,
        What reverence he did throw away on slaves,
        Wooing poor craftsmen with the craft of SMILES
        And patient underbearing of his fortune,
        As 'twere to banish their affects with him.
        Off goes his bonnet to an oyster-wench;
        A brace of draymen bid God speed him well
        And had the tribute of his supple knee,
        With 'Thanks, my countrymen, my loving friends;'
        As were our England in reversion his,
        And he our subjects' next degree in hope.

"I am Richard II," said Liz. "The deposition scene is banned
and forbidden. 
Perhaps it may be performed for an elect few usurpers on
board the Dragon or 
after James is seated. Sit down James! 

Shakespeare's head, his brow as mighty as the whales, as
mysterious, was never 
in danger. Of course he never wrote a tract, look out
Lycidas, but Milton
was blind after all and well, his politics were very
complicated, the details are in the devil.
