Who is Kortright? what is He / That Lang doth so commend him? / Bowly, fierce and fast is he; / The heaven such pace did lend him / That he might admired be.
Fast he is, but is he fair? / For throwing is unkindness. / Those to libel him who dare / Do only prove their blindness; / And, being kicked, retract it there.
