One
woe doth tread upon another's heel,
So fast they follow. Hamlet, 4. 7
There
is a willow grows aslant a brook,
that shows his hoar leaves in the glassy stream;
There with fantastic garlands did she come
Of crow-flowers, nettles, daisies, and long purples
That liberal shepherds give a grosser name,
But our cold maids do dead men's fingers call them:
There, on the pendent boughs her coronet weeds
Clambering to hang, an envious sliver broke;
When down her weedy trophies and herself
Fell in the weeping brook. Her clothes spread wide,
And, mermaid-like, awhile they bore her up;
Which time she chanted snatches of old tunes, Hamlet, 4. 7
Too
much of water hast thou, poor Ophelia,
And therefore I forbid my tears; but yet
It is our trick, nature her custom holds,
Let shame say what it will. Hamlet, 4. 7
Is
she to be buried in Christian burial that willfully seeks her
own salvation? Hamlet, 5. 1
There
is no ancient gentlemen but gardeners, ditchers and grave-makers.
Hamlet, 5. 1
First
Clown: What is he that builds stronger than either the mason,
the shipwright, or the carpenter?
Second Clown: The gallows-maker; for that frame outlives a thousand
tenants. Hamlet, 5. 1
Cudgel
thy brains no more about it, for your dull ass will not mend
his pace with beating. Hamlet, 5. 1
But
age, with his stealing steps
Hath clawed me in his clutch. Hamlet, 5. 1
A
politician…one that would circumvent God. Hamlet, 5. 1
