Frailty thy name is woman!

A little month; or ere those shoes were old,
With which she follow'd my poor father's body

Like Niobe, all tears.

Act 1.

Scene 3.

The wind sits in the shoulder of your

sail,

And you are staid for: There, my blessing with you, And these few precepts in thy memory

Look thou character. Give thy thoughts no tongue, Nor any unproportion'd thought his act.

Be thou familiar, but by no means vulgar.

The friends thou hast, and their adoption tried,
Grapple them to thy soul with hooks of steel;
But do not dull thy palm with entertainment
Of each new hatch'd, unfledged comrade. Beware
Of entrance to a quarrel: but, being in,

Bear it that the opposer may beware of thee.
Give every man thine ear, but few thy voice ;

Take each man's censure, but reserve thy judgment.

✓Costly thy habit as thy purse can buy, V

But not express'd in fancy; rich not gaudy:
For the apparel oft proclaims the man :

And they in France, of the best rank and station,
Are most select and generous, chief in that.
Neither a borrower, nor a lender be;

For loan oft loses both itself and friend;
And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.
This above all,-To thine own-self be true;
And it must follow, as the night the day,
Thou can'st not then be false to any man.

I could a tale unfold, whose lightest word
Would harrow up thy soul; freeze thy young blood;
Make thy two eyes, like stars, start from their spheres ;

Thy knotted and combined locks to part,
And each particular hair to stand on end,
Like quills upon the fretful porcupine.

With all my imperfections on my head. Ibid.

The glow-worm shows the matin to be near,
And 'gins to pale his uneffectual fire.

* In some copies of the afternoon.

Though this be madness, yet there is method in it.

What a piece of work is a man! how noble in reason! how infinite in faculty!—in form, and moving, how express and admirable! in action, how like an angel! in apprehension, how like a god! the beauty of the world! the paragon of animals! And yet, to me, what is this quintessence of dust? man delights not me, no, nor woman neither; though, by your smiling, you seem to say so.*

Give us a taste of your quality.
