I know not whether Laws be right, / Or whether Law · Oscar Wilde

Every prison that men build / Is built with bricks

I know not whether Laws be right, / Or whether Laws be wrong; / All that we know who lie in gaol / Is that the wall is strong; / And that each day is like a year, / A year whose days are long.
