Otll 1913 In this, the antique and well-noted face Ofplain old form is much disfigured, And lik# a shifted wind into a sail It makes the course of thoughts to fetch about,. Startles and frights consideration, Makes sound opinion sick and truth suspected,. For putting on so new a fashioned robe. King Johnu Let me not live After my flame lacks oil, to be the snuff Of younger spirits, whose apprehensive senses All but new ttyngs disdain ;whose judgme.its are Mere fathers of their garments: whose constancy Expires before their fashions.
