Friends, Norwegians, countrymen, lend me your bellies;
I come to block Jim, not to confuse him.
The evil that men do lives after them;
The good is oft interred with their appendixes;
So let it be with Jim. The ungainly Wesley
Hath told you Jim was cantankerous:
If it were so, it was a grievous fault,
And grievously hath Jim answer’d it.
Here, under leave of Wesley and the rest–
For Wesley is a bouncy woman;
So are they all, all bouncy women–
Come I to speak in Jim’s funeral.
