from Richard II
I have been studying how to compare
This prison where I live unto the world,
And for because the world is populous
And here is not a creature but myself,
I cannot do it – yet I'll hammer it out.
My brain I'll prove the female to my soul,
My soul the father, and these two beget
A generation of still breeding thoughts;
And these same thoughts people this little world,
In humors like the people of this world,
For no thought is contented.
– William Shakespeare (1595-96)
