Should be so tyrannous and rough in proof!

More Quotes from William Shakespeare:
Good MasterFenton,
I will not be your friend, nor enemy;
My daughter will I question how she loves you,
And as I find her, so am I affected;
Till then, farewell, sir; she must needs go in;
Her father will be angry.
William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare

William Shakespeare
