I met a fool i' the forest, A motley fool ; a miserable world ! As I do live by food. I met a fool ; Who laid him down and bask'd him in the sun, And rail'd on lady Fortune in good terms, In good set terms, and yet a motley fool. ' Good morrow, fool, ' quoth I : ' No, sir, ' quoth he, 1 Call me not fool, till heaven hath sent me fortune :' And then he drew a dial from his poke ; And looking on it with lack-lustre eye, Says, very wisely, ' It is ten o'clock : Thus may we see, ' quoth he, ' how t...he world wags : 'Tis but an hwir ago, since it was nine ; And after an hour more, 'twill be eleven ; And so, from hour to hour, we ripe, and ripe, And then, from hour to hour, we rot and rot, And thereby hangs a tale/ When I did hear The motley fool thus moral on the time, My lungs began to crow like chanticleer, That fools should be so deep-contemplative ; And I did laugh, sans intermission, An hour by his dial. O noble fool ! A worthy fool ! Motley's the only wear. Shakspere seems to use ' by food ' as a real oath, as it was a material truth that could not be gainsay ed, and suited the character and philosophy of Jaques.
