Once I imagine that, then it's OK for me to return home.

Abate the edge of traitors, gracious Lord,
That would reduce these bloody days again
And make poor England weep in streams of blood!
Let them not live to taste this land's increase

That she may long live here, God say amen!
William Shakespeare
