It is at once the centre of wealthand the sink of misery; the seat of intellect and empire: and yet awilderness wherein they, who live like wild beasts upon theirfellow-creatures, find prey and cover. Other wild beasts have long sincebeen extirpated: even in the wilds of Scotland, and of barbarous, orworse than barbarous Ireland, the wolf is no longer to be found; a degreeof civilisation this to which no other country has attained. Man, andman alone, is permitted to run wild. You plough your fi...elds and harrowthem; you have your scarifiers to make the ground clean; and if after allthis weeds should spring up, the careful cultivator roots them out byhand. But ignorance and misery and vice are allowed to grow, andblossom, and seed, not on the waste alone, but in the very garden andpleasure-ground of society and civilisation. Old Thomas Tusser's coarseremedy is the only one which legislators have yet thought of applying.

_Sir Thomas More_. --'Twas the husbandman's practice in his days and mine: "Where plots full of nettles annoyeth the eye, Sow hempseed among them, and nettles will die.
