No man is free from speaking foolish things; but the worst on't is, when a man labours to play the fool:
"Nae iste magno conatu magnas nugas dixerit."

["Truly he, with a great effort will shortly say a mighty trifle."—-Terence, Heaut., act iii., s. 4.]

I speak on paper, as I do to the first person I meet; and that this is true, observe what follows.
