The language I have learnt these forty years,
My native English, now I must forgo,
And now my tongue’s use is to me no more
Than an unstringed viol or harp.
Or like a cunning instrument cas’d up-
Or being open put into his hands
That knows no touch to tune the harmony.
Within my mouth you have engaol’d my tongue,
Double portcullis’d with my teeth and lips,
And dull unfeeling barren ignorance
Is made my gaoler to attend on me.
I am too old to fawn upon a nurse,
Too far in years to be a pupil now.
(Shakespeare: Richard II, Act 1, Scene 3)
