The condition of the operatives is becoming every day more like that of the English; and it cannot be wondered at, since, as far as I have heard or observed, the principal object is, not that mankind may be well and honestly clad, but, unquestionably, that the corporations may be enriched." -Henry D. Thoreau  Shepherds, all, and maidens fair, Fold your flocks up, for the air 'Gins to thicken, and the sun Already his great course hath run... See the heavy clouds low falling,... Hovering o'er the wanton face Of these pastures, where they come,.. Therefore, from such danger lock Every one his lovèd flock; And let your dogs lie loose without, Lest the wolf come as a scout... John Fletcher, 1579-1625 |
