"Treason doth never prosper: what's the reason?
Why, if it prosper, none dare call it treason" - Sir John Harington
Druzhina - thank you! Another collection of amazing links.
Elsewhere - to the king over the water (moving the glass of port over the water pitcher).
Breathes there the man, with soul so dead,
Who never to himself hath said,
This is my own, my native land! - Sir Walter Scott
BTW Harrington' qoute put be in mind of Alan Drury's great series of books.
