Gentle Sir Philip Sidney, thou knew'st what belong'd to a scholler; thou knew'st what pains, what toil, what travail conduct to perfection.

I'm singing, I'm singing
. . . cause I just got a copy of one of the greatest rock/pop records ever: The Seventy Sevens, Pray Naked. I've been looking for this thing for like ten years! Thanks to CB. It's as good as I remember. Better, actually.
"I am grown at length to see into the vanity of the world more than ever I did, and now I condemn myself for nothing so much as playing the dolt in print . . . . There is nothing that if a man list he may not wrest or pervert. I cannot forbid any to think villainously, Sed caveat emptor, let the interpreter beware; for none ever heard me make allegories of an idle text."
