EPIGRAPH: More is a man of an angel's wit and singular learning: I know not his fellow. For where is the man of that gentleness, lowliness and affability? And as time requireth a man of marvellous mirth and pastimes; and sometimes of as sad gravity: a man for all seasons.

EPIGRAPH: Well, as a spaniel is to water, so is a man to his own self. I will not give in because I oppose it- I do!- not my pride, not my spleen, nor any other of my appetites, but I do- I! Is there no single sinew in the midst of this that serves no appetite of Norfolk's but is, just, Norfolk? There is! Give that some exercise, my lord!
