Every schoolboy hath that famous testament of Grunnius Corocotta Porcellus at his fingers' end. - Robert Burton

What physic, what chirurgery, what wealth, favor, authority can relieve, bear out, assuage, or expel a troubled conscience? A quiet mind cureth all them, but all they cannot comfort a distressed soul: who can put to silence the voice of desperation?

Hinc quam sic calamus sævior ense, patet. The pen worse than the sword.

England is a paradise for women and hell for horses; Italy a paradise for horses, hell for women, as the diverb goes.
