Henry IV, Part 1, act 3, scene I …
“Methinks my moiety,north from Burton here,
In quantity equals not one of yours:
See how this river comes me cranking in,
And cuts me from the best of all my land
A huge half-moon,a monstrous cantle out.
I’ll have the current in this place damm’d up;
And here the smug and silver Trent shall run
In a new channel,fair and evenly;
It shall not wind with such a deep intent,
To rob me of so rich a bottom here.
But with all in jolly Leycester pissing downstream”
