2 out of 7, but to be fair I know sh*t all about Willies work and every answer was pure guesswork, I say guesswork there was actually no guessing involved, just hit a button and hope.

"Wise enough to play the fool"

You scored 6 out of 7

7: "Knowledge is the wing wherewith we fly to heaven"; 4-6: "Wise enough to play the fool"; 0-3: "There is no darkness but ignorance"

I got the cold capon question wrong and I really dislike Shakespeare

Fluffy, it was the last one that got me too though I admit the one about Lammas day was a guess. Easier for those in Scotland being one of the quarter days, but England has different ones.
