Much Ado About Nothing — V. 1

Well, every one can master a grief, but he that has it.

Comparison

When the moon shone, we did not see the candle.

So doth the greater glory dim the less;

A substitute shines brightly as a king,

Until a king be by; and then his state

Empties itself, as does an inland brook

Into the main of waters.
