An earnest conjuration from the King,
As England was his faithful tributary,
As love between them like the palm might flourish,
As peace should still her wheaten garland wear
And stand a comma 'tween their amities,
And many such-like as's of great charge,
That, on the view and knowing of these contents,
Without debatement further, more or less,
He should the bearers put to sudden death,
Not shriving time allow'd.
(The Tragedy Of Hamlet, Prince Of Denmark)
More Quotes from William Shakespeare:
So should that beauty which you hold in leaseFind no determination; then you were
Yourself again after yourself's decease,
When your sweet issue your sweet form should bear.
William Shakespeare
Neither a borrower nor a lender be For loan oft loses both itself and friend, And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry,
William Shakespeare
Trifles light as air Are to the jealous confirmations strong As proofs of holy writ.
William Shakespeare
For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,
Th' oppressor's wrong, the proud man's contumely,
The pangs of despis'd love, the law's delay,
The insolence of office, and the spurns
That patient merit of th' unworthy takes,
When he himself might his quietus make
With a bare bodkin?
William Shakespeare
Would you have a love-song, or a song of good life?
William Shakespeare
O, I have pass'd a miserable night,
So full of fearful dreams, of ugly sights,
That, as I am a Christian faithful man,
I would not spend another such a night
Though 'twere to buy a world of happy days-
So full of dismal terror was the time!
William Shakespeare
