These words are razors to my wounded heart. - Titus Andronicus (Titus at I, i) [Words] Titus Andronicus, for thy favors done To us in our election this day I give thee thanks in part of thy deserts, And will with deeds requite thy gentleness: And for an onset, Titus, to advance Thy name and honorable family, Lavinia will I make my emperess, Rome's royal mistress, mistress of my heart, And in the sacred Pantheon her espouse. Tell me, Andronicus, doth this motion please thee? - Titus Andronicus (Saturninus at I, i) [Deeds] Wilt thou draw near the nature of the gods? Draw near them then in being merciful. Sweet mercy is nobility's true badge: Thrice-noble Titus, spare my first-born son. - Titus Andronicus (Tamora at I, i) [Gods] As when the golden sun salutes the morn, And having gilt the ocean with his beams, Gallops the zodiac in his glistering coach And overlooks the highest-peering hills, So Tamora. - Titus Andronicus (Aaron at II, i) [Morning : Sunrise] Foul-spoken coward, that thunder'st with thy tongue, And with thy weapon nothing dar'st perform. - Titus Andronicus (Chiron at II, i) [Proverbs] She is a woman, therefore may be wooed; She is a woman, therefore may be won; She is Lavinia, therefore must be loved. - Titus Andronicus (Demetrius at II, i) [Wooing] What, man! more water glideth by the mill That wots the miller of; and easy it is Of a cut loaf to steal a shive, we know: Though Bassianus be the emperor's brother, Better then he have worn Vulcan's badge. - Titus Andronicus (Demetrius at II, i) [Water] The birds chaunt melody on every bush, The snake lies rolled in the cheerful sun, The green leaves quiver with the cooling wind, And make a checkered shadow on the ground; Under their sweet shade, Aaron, let us sit, And whilst the babbling echo mocks the hounds, Replying shrilly to the well-tuned horns, As if a double hunt were heard at once, Let us sit down and mark their yellowing noise; And after conflict such as was supposed The wand'ring prince and Dido once enjoyed, When with a happy storm they were surprised, And curtained with a counsel-keeping cave, We may, each wreathed in the other's arms, Our pastimes done, possess a golden slumber, Whiles hounds and horns and sweet melodious birds Be unto us as is a nurse's song Of lullaby to bring her babe asleep. - Titus Andronicus (Tamora at II, iii) [Echo : Shadows] These two have ticed me hither to this place, A barren detested vale you see it is; The trees, though summer, yet forlorn and lean, Overcome with moss and baleful mistletoe. - Titus Andronicus (Tamora at II, iii) [Trees] Vengeance is in my heart, death in my hand, Blood and revenge are hammering in my head. - Titus Andronicus (Aaron at II, iii) [Revenge] O, had the monster seen those lily hands Tremble like aspen leafs upon a lute And make the silken strings delight to kiss them, He would not then have touched them for his life. - Titus Andronicus (Marcus at II, iv) [Aspen] Sorrow concealed, like an oven stopp'd, Doth burn the heart to cinders, where it is. - Titus Andronicus (Marcus at II, iv) [Proverbs : Sorrow] These two have ticed me hither to this place, A barren detested vale you see it is; The trees, though summer, yet forlorn and lean, Overcome with moss and baleful mistletoe. - Titus Andronicus (Tamora at II,iii) [Trees] Did ever raven sing so like a lark That gives sweet tidings of the sun's uprise? - Titus Andronicus (Titus at III, i) [Ravens] O brother, speak with possibility, And do not break into these deep extremes. - Titus Andronicus (Marcus at III, i) [Extremes] To weep with them that weep doth ease some deal; But sorrow flouted at is double death. - Titus Andronicus (Marcus at III, i) [Sorrow] When I did name her brothers, then fresh tears Stood on her cheeks, as doth the honeydew Upon a gath'red lily almost withered. - Titus Andronicus (Titus at III, i) [Tears] Alas, poor man! Grief has so wrought on him He takes false shadows for true substances. - Titus Andronicus (Marcus at III, ii) [Grief] Some book there is that she desires to see. Which is it, girl, of these? Open them, boy. But thou art deeper read and better skilled: Come and take choice of all my library, And so beguile thy sorrow, till the heavens Reveal the damned contriver of this deed. - Titus Andronicus (Titus at IV, i) [Libraries] Coal-black is better than another hue In that it scorns to bear another hue; For all the water in the ocean Can never turn the swan's black legs to white, Although she lave them hourly in the flood. - Titus Andronicus (Aaron at IV, ii) [Swans] Now to the Goths, as swift as swallow flies, There to dispose this treasure in mine arms And secretly to greet the empress's friends. - Titus Andronicus (Aaron at IV, ii) [Swallows] The empress, the midwife, and yourself: Two may keep counsel when the third's away. Go to the empress, tell her this I said. - Titus Andronicus (Aaron at IV, ii) [Secrecy] Weeke, weeke! So cries a pig prepared to the spit. - Titus Andronicus (Aaron at IV, ii) [Cookery] Is the sun dimmed, that gnats do fly in it? - Titus Andronicus (Tamora at IV, iv) [Proverbs] The eagle suffers little birds to sing, And is not careful what they mean thereby, Knowing that with the shadow of his wings He can at pleasure stint their melody: Even so mayest thou the giddy men of Rome. - Titus Andronicus (Tamora at IV, iv) [Eagles : Proverbs] Displaying page 182 of 186 for this author: << Prev Next >> 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 84 85 86 87 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99 100 101 102 103 104 105 106 107 108 109 110 111 112 113 114 115 116 117 118 119 120 121 122 123 124 125 126 127 128 129 130 131 132 133 134 135 136 137 138 139 140 141 142 143 144 145 146 147 148 149 150 151 152 153 154 155 156 157 158 159 160 161 162 163 164 165 166 167 168 169 170 171 172 173 174 175 176 177 178 179 180 181 [182] 183 184 185 186
