Apply thy wit, O Brother, here and there Upon this and upon that; but beware
 * Lest in the end—ah, better at the start

Go to the Tinker for a slight repair.

And why so much ado, and wherefore lay The burden of the years upon the day
 * Of thy vain dreams? Who polishes his sword

Morning and eve will polish it away.
