and when the fit was on him, i did mark
how he did shake: ‘tis true, this god did shake;
his coward lips did from their colour fly,
and that same eye whose bend doth awe the world
did lose his luster: i did hear him groan:
ay, and that tongue of his that bade the romans
mark him and write his speeches in their books,

so get the start of the majestic world
and bear the palm alone.
