Thomas Paine’s letter to the People of Pennsylvania opens with bardish verse:

To write, or not to write; that is the question—
Whether ‘tis nobler in the mind to bear
Th’unlicens’d wrongs of furious party zeal,
Or dip the pen into a nest of hornets,
And still, by teazing, wake them? …

Alas poor Cato!
