LXXIV



But be contented: when that fell arrest

Without all bail shall carry me away,

My life hath in this line some interest,

Which for memorial still with thee shall stay.

When thou reviewest this, thou dost review

The very part was consecrate to thee:

The earth can have but earth, which is his due;

My spirit is thine, the better part of me:

So then thou hast but lost the dregs of life,

The prey of worms, my body being dead;

The coward conquest of a wretch\'s knife,

Too base of thee to be remembered,.

  The worth of that is that which it contains,

  And that is this, and this with thee remains.

 	--William Shakespeare

Education is what remains after one has forgotten everything he learned
in school. --Albert Einstein

CXXXIV



So, now I have confess\'d that he is thine,

And I my self am mortgag\'d to thy will,

Myself I\'ll forfeit, so that other mine

Thou wilt restore to be my comfort still:

But thou wilt not, nor he will not be free,

For thou art covetous, and he is kind;

He learn\'d but surety-like to write for me,

Under that bond that him as fast doth bind.

The statute of thy beauty thou wilt take,

Thou usurer, that putt\'st forth all to use,

And sue a friend came debtor for my sake;

So him I lose through my unkind abuse.

  Him have I lost; thou hast both him and me:

  He pays the whole, and yet am I not free.

 	--William Shakespeare
