O God! methinks...
Vendor: DRAMATISTS
O God! methinks it were a happy life,
To be no better than a homely swain;
To sit upon a hill, as I do now,
To carve out dials, quaintly, point by point,
Thereby to see the minutes how they run,
How many make the hour full complete. . .

-- William Shakespeare, (Apr 23 1564-1616), English dramatist, poet; He is considered the greatest writer in any language for his 154 sonnets and 37 plays, e.g., Hamlet, 1600.
