quotes
Quote 1: "Till he faced the slave;/
Which ne'er shook hands, nor bade farewell to him,/
Till he unseamed him from the nave to th' chops,/
And fixed his head upon our battlements."
Quote 2: "Let not light see my black and deep desires./
The eye wink at the hand, yet let that be/
Which the eye fears, when it is done, to see."
Quote 3: "Look like the time. Bear welcome in your eye,/
Your hand, your tongue. Look like th' innocent flower,/
But be the serpent under ’t. "
Quote 4: "The prince of Cumberland! That is a step/
On which I must fall down, or else o'erleap,/
For in my way it lies. Stars, hide your fires;/
Let not light see my black and deep desires./
The eye wink at the hand, yet let that be/
Which the eye fears, when it is done, to see."
