His breeding, sir, hath been at my charge. I have sooften blushed to acknowledge him that now I am brazedto it.
For by the sacred radiance of the sun,The mysteries of Hecate and the night,By all the operation of the orbsFrom whom we do exist and cease to be—
The jewels of our father, with washed eyesCordelia leaves you. I know you what you are,
Thou, nature, art my goddess. To thy lawMy services are bound.

Idle old manThat still would manage those authoritiesThat he hath given away!
Truth’s a dog that must to kennel. He must be whipped out,when Lady Brach may stand by th' fire and stink.
Thou better know’stThe offices of nature, bond of childhood,Effects of courtesy, dues of gratitude

If you miscarry,Your business of the world hath so an end,And machination ceases. Fortune love you.
Have I caught thee?He that parts us shall bring a brand from heavenAnd fire us hence like foxes. Wipe thine eyes.
