___La, I am an honest deceiver, For whomsoever shall lend his lies to me, Will be repaid threefold in pretty devilment.___

Marlowesque
___La, I am an honest deceiver, For whomsoever shall lend his lies to me, Will be repaid threefold in pretty devilment.___
Channelling Stoppard, who imitated Marlowe, who emulated Virgil. Originality is nought but petty thievery. ;) ‘You must be proud, bold, pleasant, resolute, And now and then stab, when occasion serves.’ - Kit Marlowe
