Quotes about footfall (4 Quotes)

Fright me with urchin-shows, pitch me i' th' mire,
Nor lead me, like a firebrand, in the dark
Out of my way, unless he bid 'em; but
For every trifle are they set upon me;

Their pricks at my footfall; sometime am I
All wound with adders, who with cloven tongues
Do hiss me into madness.
