A plague o' both your houses ! 'Zounds, a dog, a rat, a mouse, a cat, to scratch a man to death ! a braggart, a rogue, a villain, that fights by the book of arithmetic !

Sivu 433 - I saw, at every town's end, the number of ten or twelve standing with long staves, and until I came to Enfield, I thought no other of them but that they had stayed for avoiding of the rain, or to drink at some alehouses, for so they did stand under pentices at alehouses : but at Enfield, finding a dozen in a plump, when there was no rain, I bethought myself that they were appointed as watchmen for the apprehending of such as are missing ; and thereupon I called some of them to me apart, and asked...
Sivu 414 - He had all the parts of an excellent orator, animating his words with speaking and speech with action, his auditors being never more delighted than when he spoke nor more sorry than when he held his peace, yet even then he was an excellent actor still, never falling in his part when he had done speaking but with his looks and gesture maintaining it still unto the height...
Sivu 414 - He was a delightful Proteus, so wholly transforming himself into his part, and putting off himself with his clothes, as he never (not so much as in the 'tiring house) assumed himself again, until the play was done.
