Foul deeds will rise, Though all the earth o'erwhelm them, to men's eyes. - Hamlet Prince of Denmark (Hamlet at I, ii) [Crime : Suspicion] Do not for ever with thy vailed lids Seek for thy noble father in the dust.

No, nor the fruitful river in the eye, Nor the dejected haviour of the visage, Together with all forms, moods, shapes of grief, That can denote me truly.
