340 What need'st thou run so many miles about, 341 This is he 24-iv. 4. That kiss'd away his hand in courtesy ; Mend him who can: the ladies call him, sweet; 342 You have got a humour there, 8-v. 2. Does not become a man; 'tis much to blame : They say, that ira furor brevis est, But yond' man's ever angry. 343 27-i. 2. I would give a thousand pound, I could run as fast as thou canst. You are straight enough in the shoulders, you care not who sees your back. 344 18-ii. 4. A traveller! I fear, you have sold your own lands, to see other men's: then, to have seen much, and to have nothing, is to have rich eyes and poor hands. 345 10-iv. 1. The tartness of his face sours ripe grapes. When he walks, he moves like an engine, and the ground shrinks before the treading. He is able to pierce a corslet with his eye; talks like a knell, and his hum is a battery. He sits in his state,* as a thing madef for Alexander. What he bids be done, is finished with his bidding. 28-v. 4. *Chair of state. †To resemble. 346 Contemplation makes a rare turkey-cock of him; how he jets* under his advanced plumes. 347 The patch is kind enough: but a huge feeder, 348 4-ii. 5. 9-ii. 5. I am known to be a humorous patrician, and one that loves a cup of hot wine with not a drop of allaying Tybert in't; said to be something imperfect, in favouring the first complaint: hasty, and tinder-like, upon too trivial motion: one that converses more with the buttock of the night, than with the forehead of the morning. What I think, I utter; and spend my malice in my breath. 28-ii. 1. 349 In our last conflict four of his five wits went halting off, and now is the whole man governed with one: so that if he have wit enough to keep himself warm, let him bear it for a difference between himself and his horse; for it is all the wealth that he hath left, to be known a reasonable creature. 6-i. 1. 350 Thou art not honest: or, If thou inclin'st that way, thou art a coward; Which hoxest honesty behind, restraining From course required. 351 13-i. 2. Sham'st thou not, knowing whence thou art extraught, To let thy tongue detects thy base-born heart? 352 Get thee glass eyes; And, like a scurvy politician, seem To see the things thou dost not. 23-ii. 2. 34--iv. 6. To hox is to hamstring. § To show thy meanness of birth by thy indecent railing. 353 I would your spirit were easier for advice, 354 13-iv. 3. Wilt thou show the whole wealth of thy wit in an instant? 9-iii. 5. 355 I am not fat enough to become the function well; nor lean enough to be thought a good student: but to be said, an honest man, and a good housekeeper, goes as fairly, as to say a careful man, and a great scholar. 4-iv. 2. 356 This man hath robbed many beasts of their particular additions;* he is as valiant as the lion, churlish as the bear, slow as the elephant: a man, into whom nature hath so crowded humours, that his valour is crushed into folly, his folly sauced with discretion: there is no man hath a virtue, that he hath not a glimpse of; nor any man an attaint, but he carries some strain of it: He is melancholy without cause, and merry against the hair: He hath the joints of every thing; but every thing so out of joint, that he is a gouty Briareus, many hands and no use; or purblind Argus, all eyes and no sight. 357 He will never follow any thing 26-i. 2. That other men begin. 358 29-ii. 1. This fellow pecks up wit, as pigeon's peas; He is wit's pedler. 359 8-v. 2. Your fire-new stamp of honour is scarce current. 360 24-i. 3. His purse is empty already; all his golden words are spent. 36-v. 2. *Characters. † Mingled. 1 Grain. 361 Repair thy wit, good youth, or it will fall To cureless ruin. 9-iv. 1. 362 What a spendthrift he is of his tongue! 1-ii. 1. 363 That they call compliment, is like the encounter of two dog-apes. 10-ii. 5. 364 Hath not the world one man, but he will wear his cap with suspicion ?* Shall I never see a bachelor of three-score again? Go to, i'faith: an thou wilt needs thrust thy neck into a yoke, wear the print of it, and sigh away Sundays. 6-i. 1. 365 You shall find there A man, who is the abstract of all faults That all men follow. I must not think, there are Evils enough to darken all his goodness: His faults, in him, seem as the spots of heaven, 366 30-i. 4. Manhood is melted into courtesies, valour into compliment, and men are only turned into tongue, and trim ones too: he is now as valiant as Hercules, that only tells a lie, and swears it. 6-iv. 1. 367 There's no true drop of blood in him, to be truly touched with love: if he be sad, he wants money. i. e. Subject his head to the disquiet of jealousy. 6-iii. 2. Ceremony. § Not only men, but trim ones, are turned into tongues; i. e. not † Procured by his own fault. only common but clever men. 368 I have forsworn his company hourly any time this two-and-twenty years; and yet I am bewitched with the rogue's company. If the rascal have not given me medicines to make me love him, I'll be hanged; it could not be else; I have drunk medicines. 369 18-ii. 2. You shall see him laugh, till his face be like a wet cloak ill laid up. 19-v. 1. 370 Thou wilt be as valiant as the wrathful dove, or most magnanimous mouse. 371 19-iii. 2. An I have not forgotten what the inside of a church is made of, I am a pepper-corn, a brewer's horse: The inside of a church! Company, villanous company, hath been the spoil of me. 18-iii. 3. 372 Thou art our admiral, thou bearest the lantern in the poop, but 'tis in the nose of thee; thou art the knight of the burning lamp. 18-iii. 3. 373 Assist me, some extemporal god of rhyme; for, I am sure, I shall turn sonnetteer. Devise, wit; write pen; for I am four whole volumes in folio. 8-i. 2. 374 That unletter'd small-knowing soul. 375 8-i. 1. I I pr'ythee, trouble me no more with vanity. would, thou and I knew where a commodity of good names were to be bought. 376 18-i. 2. A most acute juvenal; voluble and free of grace! 1 8-iii. 1. |
