Note 232 — ACT I, SCENE 1.
Reading edition
So Shakespeare, in "Timon of Athens," act iv. sc. 3—
"I'll example you with thievery. The sun's a thief, and with his great attraction Robs the vast sea: the moon's an arrant thief, And her pale fire she snatches from the sun; The sea's a thief, whose liquid surge resolves The moon into salt tears; the earth's a thief. That feeds and breeds, by a composture stolen From general excrement: each thing's a thief; The laws, your curb and whip, in their rough power Have uncheck'd theft."
