"Oh, you may be sure"–
Said I–"I would–but what I mentioned now
As mine–I just forgot–what matter how?–
My messmate Cinna, Gaius Cinna, he
Has commandeered them; Really, as for me,
What difference if you call them his or mine?
I use them just whenever I incline.
But you’re a silly pestilential jade
To want a chance remark so nicely weighed?
