There is a verse from Shakespeare’s Henry V that exclaims,
“From this day to the ending of the world, But we in it shall be remembered-We few, we happy few, we band of brothers; For he today that sheds his blood with me, Shall be my brother; be he ne’er so vile, This day shall gentle his condition; And gentlemen in England now a bed shall think themselves accursed they were not here, and hold their manhoods cheap whilst any speaks that fought with us upon Saint Crispin’s day”.

Shakespeare...Romeo and Juliet
Act 2
MERCUTIO
An old hare hoar,
And an old hare hoar,
Is very good meat in Lent.
But a hare that is hoar
Is too much for a score
When it hoars ere it be spent.
Old rabbit meat is good to eat,
If you can’t get anything else.
But if it’s so old,
That it goes bad before you eat it,
Then it was a waste of money.

As a saltwata fullahman I expect you to be salivating at the thought of boar meat not hare meat
Last August I went to see Henry V111 at the Globe theatre where Shakespeare originally performed his plays. A Chinese guy next to me was following along with a Chinese script, even though his English was good he couldn't understand head or tail what the actors were saying.
JOHN OF GAUNT
Methinks I am a prophet new inspired
And thus expiring do foretell of him:
His rash fierce blaze of riot cannot last,
For violent fires soon burn out themselves;
Small showers last long, but sudden storms are short;
He tires betimes that spurs too fast betimes;
With eager feeding food doth choke the feeder:
Light vanity, insatiate cormorant,
Consuming means, soon preys upon itself.

One night some friends and I were soooooooooooooo drunk we climbed on top of the Globe Theatre wall and tried to see who could walk the furthest without falling several feet. I lost
