“Richard, Polly and I talked about the Fens, and how they are apt to breed rebels and saints and fancy words. John Skelton, Laureate Parson of Disse, knew a girl who was Benign, courteous, and meek, With wordes well devised; In you, who list to seek, Be virtues well comprised. Her name was Margery Wentworth. I see her catching his eye at matins.”
