Excerpt from Old Times and New: Or, a Few Raps Over the Knuckles of the Present Age "In this, the antique and well-noted face Of plain old form is much disfigured, And like 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 John. "Let me not live After flame lacks oil, to be the snuff Of younger spirits, whose apprehensive senses All but now things disdain, whose judgements are Mere father's of their garments: whose constancy Expires before their fashions."
