I'm not at all sure that I want to rub off on anyone. Mr Tuco's quotation is apposite, although what Macbeth had in mind was the totality of human experience, which is the sense in which Faulkner cribbed the same text for his title.
The Tennyson pastiche is another matter. The original version of The Wasteland contained a somewhat more extended Pope pastiche written in heroic couplets. Eliot asked Pound what he thought of it; and Pound said, 'Take it out. It would work only if you could write better lines than Pope, and you cannot'.
