Not So Easily Played Upon.

Creator Harper's Weekly, Thomas Nast (1840-1902)
Accession number 99.124.42 
Unique identifier MNY4414 
Description U. S. G. "Will you play upon this pipe?" / C. S. "My lord, I can not." / U. S. G. "Tis as easy as lying, govern these vantages with your fingers and thumb, / give it breath with your mouth, and it will discourse most eloquent music. Look you, these / are the stops." / C. S. "But these can not I command to any utterance of harmony; I have not the skill." / U. S. G. "Why, look you now, how unworthy a thing you make of me! You would play / upon me; you would seem to know my stops; you would pluck out the heart of my mystery; / you would sound me to my lowest note to the top of my compass; and there is much music, / excellent voice, in this little organ; yet can not you make it speak.  Why, do you think, I / am easier to be played on than a pipe? Call me what instrument you will, though you can fret / me, you can not play upon me." -- Hamlet, Act III, Scene II.
