I have a dictionary which contains some words and
their frequency in a short novel.

It looks like this:

mydict = {'the':358, 'they':29, 'went':7, 'said':65}

Is there an easy to sort this dictionary and get a
list like the following (in decreasing order)?

the   358
said  65
they  29
went  7

Thanks
