    King Lear

  • 28. Ariel, THE TEMPEST To every article.I boarded the King's ship. Now on the beak,Now in the waste, the deck, in every cabinI flamed amazement. Sometimes I'd divide,And burn in many places; on the topmast,The yards, and bowsprit, would I flame distinctly;Then meet and join. Jove's lightning, the precursorsO' th' dreadful thunderclaps, more momentaryAnd sight-outrunning were not. The fire and cracksOf sulphurous roaring the most mighty NeptuneSeem to beseige, and make his bold waves tremble,Yea, his dread trident shake. . . .Not a soulBut felt a fever of the mad, and playedSome tricks of desperation. All but marinersPlunged into the foaming brine, and quit the vessel,Then all afire with me. 1.2.194-213

Caliban, THE TEMPEST When thou cam'st first,Thou strok'st me and made much of me, would give meWater with berries in 't, and teach me howTo name the bigger light, and how the less,That burn by day and night; and then I loved theeAnd showed thee all the qualities o' th' isle,The fresh springs, brine-pits, barren place andfertile---Cursed be that I did so!

But all's too weak,For brave Macbeth (well he deserves that name)Disdaining Fortune, with his brandished steelWhich smoked with bloody execution,Like valor's minion carved out his passageTill he faced the slave;Which ne'er shook hands nor bade farewell to himTill he unseamed him from the nave to th' chopsAnd fixed his head upon our battlements. 1.2.9-23

    1. Claudius, HAMLET Though yet of ______ our dear brother's deathThe memory be green, and that it us befittedTo bear our hearts in grief and our whole kingdomTo be contracted in one brow of woe,Yet so far hath discretion fought with natureThat we with wisest sorrow think on himTogether with remembrance of ourselves.Therefore, our sometime sister, now our queen,Th'imperial jointress of this warlike state,Have we as 'twere with a defeated joy,With one auspicious and one dropping eye,With mirth in funeral and with dirge in marriage,In equal scale weighing delight and dole,Taken to wife.

    19. Cleopatra, ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA That time--O times!--I laughed him out of patience, and that nightI laughed him into patience, and next morn, Ere the ninth hour, I drunk him to his bed,Then put my tires and mantles on him, whilstI wore his sword Phillipan. 2.5.18-23

Or is he on his horse?O happy horse, to bear the weight of _______!Do bravely, horse, for wot'st thou whom thou movest? --The demi-Atlas of this earth, the armAnd burgonet of men.

Haply, when I shall wed,That lord whose hand must take my plight shall carryHalf my love with him, half my care and duty.

    8. Emilia, OTHELLO Let husbands knowTheir wives have sense like them. They see, and smell,And have their palates both for sweet and sourAs husbands have. What is it that they doWhen they change us for others? Is it sport?I think it is. And doth affection breed it?I think it doth. Is't frailty that thus errs?It is so, too. And have not we affections,Desires for sport, and frailty, as men have? 4.3.91-99

  • 38. Enobarbus, ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA O sovereign mistress of true melancholy,The poisonous damp of night disponge upon me,That life, a very rebel to my will,May hang no longer on me: throw my heartAgainst the flint and hardness of my fault:Which, being dried with grief, will break to powder,And finish all foul thoughts. O _____,Nobler than my revolt is infamous,Forgive me in thine own particular;But let the world rank me in registerA master-leaver and a fugitive:O _____! O _____!dies

    39. Enobarbus, ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA The barge she sat in, like a burnish'd throne,Burn'd on the water: the poop was beaten gold;Purple the sails, and so perfumed thatThe winds were love-sick with them; the oars were silver,Which to the tune of flutes kept stroke, and madeThe water which they beat to follow faster,As amorous of their strokes. For her own person,It beggar'd all description: she did lieIn her pavilion--cloth-of-gold of tissue--O'er-picturing that Venus where we seeThe fancy outwork nature: on each side herStood pretty dimpled boys, like smiling Cupids,With divers-colour'd fans, whose wind did seemTo glow the delicate cheeks which they did cool,And what they undid did.

    20. Enobarbus, ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA Age cannot wither her, nor custom staleHer infinite variety. Other women cloyThe appetities they feed, but she makes hungryWhere most she satisfies. For vilest thingsBecome themselves in her, that the holy priestsBless her when she is riggish. 2.2.241-246

    43. Ferdinand, THE TEMPEST Most sure, the goddessOn whom these airs attend! Vouchsafe my prayerMay know if you remain upon this island;And that you will some good instruction giveHow I may bear me here: my prime request,Which I do last pronounce, is, O you wonder!If you be maid or no?

  • 34. Gertrude, HAMLET There is a willow grows aslant a brook,That shows his hoar leaves in the glassy stream;There with fantastic garlands did she comeOf crow-flowers, nettles, daisies, and long purplesThat liberal shepherds give a grosser name,But our cold maids do dead men's fingers call them:There, on the pendent boughs her coronet weedsClambering to hang, an envious sliver broke;When down her weedy trophies and herselfFell in the weeping brook. Her clothes spread wide;And, mermaid-like, awhile they bore her up:Which time she chanted snatches of old tunes;As one incapable of her own distress,Or like a creature native and induedUnto that element: but long it could not beTill that her garments, heavy with their drink,Pull'd the poor wretch from her melodious layTo muddy death.

    3. Ghost, HAMLET The leperous distillment, whose effectHolds such an enmity with the blood of manThat swift as quicksilver it courses throughThe natural gates and alleys of the bodyAnd with a sudden vigor it doth possetAnd curd, like eager droppings into milk,The thin and wholesome blood. So it did mine,And a most instant tetter barked about,Most lazar-like, with vile and loathsome crust,All my smooth body.

    30. Gonzalo, THE TEMPEST I th' commonwealth I would by contrariesExecute all things. For no kind of traffic Would I admit, no name of magistrate;Letters should not be known; riches, poverty,And use of service, none; contract, succession,Bourn, bound of land, tilth, vineyard, none;No use of metal, corn, or wine, or oil;No occupation, all men idle, all;And women too--but innocent and pure;No sovereignty--All things in common nature should produceWithout sweat or endeavor. Treason, felony,Sword, pike, knife, gun, or need of any engineWould I not have; but nature should bring forthOf it own kind all foison, all abundanceTo feed my innocent people. (2.1.147-164)

    2. Hamlet, HAMLET Seems, madam? Nay, it is, I know not 'seems.''Tis not alone my inky cloak, good mother,Nor customary suits of solemn black,Nor windy suspiration of forced breath,No, nor the fruitful river in the eye,Nor the dejected havior of the visage,Together with all forms, moods, shapes of grief,That can denote me truly. These indeed seem, For they are actions that a man might play,But I have that within which passes show,These but the trappings and the suits of woe.

  • 5. Hamlet, HAMLET The rugged Pyrrhus, he whose sable arms,Black as his purpose, did the night resembleWhen he lay couched in the ominous horse,Hath now this dread and black complexion smearedWith heraldry more dismal. Head to footNow is he total gules, horridly trickedWith blood of fathers, mothers, daughters, sonsBaked and impasted with the parching streets,. . . Roasted in wrath and fire,And thus o'ersized with coagulate gore,With eyes like carbuncles, the hellish PyrrhusOld grandsire Priam seeks. 2.2.432-444

    4. Hamlet, HAMLET O that this too too solid flesh would melt,Thaw, and resolve itself into a dew,Or that the Everlasting had not fixedHis canon 'gainst self-slaughter! O God, O God,How weary, stale, flat, and unprofitableSeem to me all the uses of this world!Fie on't, ah, fie, fie! 'Tis an unweeded gardenThat grows to seed; things rank and gross in naturePossess it merely. That it should come to this--But two months dead--nay, not so much, not two--So excellent a king, that was to thisHyperion to a satyr, so loving to my motherThat he might not beteem the winds of heavenVisit her face too roughly! Heaven and earth,Must I remember? Why, she would hang on himAs if increase of appetite had grownBy what it fed on, and yet within a month--Let me not think on it; frailty, thy name is woman--A little month, or ere those shoes were oldWith which she followed my poor father's body,Like Niobe, all tears, why she, even she--O God, a beast that wants discourse of reasonWould have mourned longer! --married with my uncle,My father's brother, but no more like my fatherThan I to Hercules.

    6. Hamlet, HAMLET Is it not monstrous that this player here,But in a fiction, in a dream of passion,Could force his soul so to his own conceitThat from her working all his visage wanned,Tears in his eyes, distraction in his aspect,A broken voice, and his whole function suitingWith forms to his conceit? And all for nothing!For Hecuba!What's Hecuba to him, or he to Hecuba,That he should weep for her? What would he doHad he the motive and the cue for passionThat I have? He would drown the stage with tearsAnd cleave the general ear with horrid speech,Make mad with guilty and appall the free,Confound the ignorant, and amaze indeedThe very faculties of eyes and ears. 2.2.527-543

For __________,With whom I am accused, I do confessI loved him as in honour he required,With such a kind of love as might becomeA lady like me, with a love even such,So and no other, as yourself commanded:Which not to have done I think had been in meBoth disobedience and ingratitudeTo you and toward your friend, whose love had spoke,Even since it could speak, from an infant, freelyThat it was yours. Now, for conspiracy,I know not how it tastes; though it be dish'dFor me to try how: all I know of itIs that _______ was an honest man;And why he left your court, the gods themselves,Wotting no more than I, are ignorant.

    16. Lady Macbeth, MACBETH Come, you spiritsThat tend on mortal thoughts, unsex me here,And fill me from the crown to the toe topfulOf direst cruelty. Make thick my blood;Stop up th'access and passage to remorse,That no compunctious visitings of natureShake my fell purpose nor keep peace betweenTh'effect and it. Come to my woman's breastsAnd take my milk for gall, you murd'ring ministers,Wherever in your sightless substancesYou wait on nature's mischief. Come, thick nightAnd pall thee in the dunnest smoke of hell,That my keen knife see not the wound it makes,Nor heaven peep through the blanket of the darkTo cry "Hold, hold!" 1.5.39-52

    37. Lear, KING LEAR Poor naked wretches, whereso'er you are,That bide the pelting of this pitiless storm,How shall your houseless heads and unfed sides,Your loop'd and window'd raggedness, defend youFrom seasons such as these? O, I have ta'enToo little care of this! Take physic, pomp;Expose thyself to feel what wretches feel,That thou mayst shake the superflux to them,And show the heavens more just.

And thou, all-shaking thunder,Smite flat the thick rotundity o' the world!Crack nature's moulds, an germens spill at once,That make ingrateful man!Fool

    11. Lear, KING LEAR No, you unnatural hags,I will have such revenges on you both,That all the world shall--I will do such things--What they are, yet I know not, but they shall beThe terrors of the earth! You think I'll weep,No, I'll not weep. 2.4.273-278

    13. Lear, KING LEAR Come, let's away to prison,We two alone will sing like birds i'th' cage;When thou dost ask me blessing, I'll kneel down And ask of thee forgiveness. So we'll live,And pray, and sing, and tell old tales, and laughAt gilded butterflies, and hear poor roguesTalk of court news; and we'll talk with them too--Who loses and who wins; who's in, who's out--And take upon 's the mystery of thingsAs if we were God's spies, and we'll wear outIn a walled prison, packs and sects of great ones,That ebb and flow by th' moon

    12. Lear, KING LEAR Hear, nature, hear! dear goddess, hear!Suspend thy purpose, if thou didst intendTo make this creature fruitful!Into her womb convey sterility!Dry up in her her organs of increase,And from her derogate body never spring A babe to honor her! If she must teem,Create her child of spleen, that it may liveAnd be a thwart disnatured torment to her.Let it stamp wrinkles in her brow of youth;With cadent tears fret channels in her cheeks;Turn all her mother's pains and benefitsTo laughter and contempt, that she may feelHow sharper than a serpent's tooth it isTo have a thankless child! 1.4.251-266

    24. Leontes, THE WINTER'S TALE Can thy dammay't be?Affection, thy intention stabs the centre.Thou dost make possible things not so held,Communicat'st with dreamshow can this be?-With what's unreal thou coactive art,And fellow'st nothing. Then 'tis very credentThou mayst co-join with something, and thou dostAnd that beyond commission; and I find it

  • 25. Leontes, THE WINTER'S TALE Too hot, too hot:To mingle friendship farre is mingling bloods.I have tremor cordis on me. My heart dances,But not for joy, not joy. This entertainmentMay a free face put on, derive a libertyFrom heartiness, from bounty, fertile bosom,And well become the agent. T may, I grant,But to be paddling palms and pinching fingersAs now they are, and then to sigh, as 'twereThe mort o the deerO, that is entertainmentMy bosom likes not, nor my brows. 1.2.110-121

    17. Macbeth, MACBETH Stars, hide your fires;Let not light see my black and deep desires.The eye wink at the hand; yet let that beWhich the eye fears, when it is done, to see. 1.4.50-5

    15. Macbeth, MACBETH If it were done when 'tis done, then 'twere wellIt were done quickly.

    9. Othello, OTHELLO Soft you, a word or two before you go.I have done the state some service, and they know't.No more of that. I pray you, in your letters,When you shall these unlucky deeds relate,Speak of me as I am. Nothing extenuate,Nor set down aught in malice. Then must you speakOf one that loved not wisely but too well,Of one not easily jealous but, being wrought,Perplexed in the extreme; of one whose handLike the base Indian [Judean] threw a pearl awayRicher than all his tribe; of one whose subdued eyes,Albeit unused to the melting mood,Drops tears as fast as the Arabian treesTheir medicinable gum. Set you down this,And say besides, that in Aleppo once,Where a malignant and a turbaned TurkBeat a Venetian and traduced the state,I took by the throat the circumcised dogAnd smote him thus. He stabs himself. 5.2.347-365

  • 7. Othello, OTHELLO Her father loved me, oft invited me;Still questioned me the story of my lifeFrom year to year, the battles, sieges, fortunes,That I have passed.I ran it through, even from my boyish daysTo th' very moment that he bade me tell it;Wherein I spoke of most disastrous chances,Of moving accidents by flood and field,Of hair-breadth scapes i' th' imminent deadly breach,Of being taken by the insolent foeAnd sold to slavery, my redemption thence,And portance in my traveller's history;Wherein of antres vast and deserts idle,Rough quarries, rocks, and hills whose heads touch heaven,It was my hint to speak.
