Twelfth Night
[I, 1]

To pay this debt of love but to a brother,
How will she love, when the rich golden shaft
Hath kill'd the flock of all affections else
That live in her; when liver, brain and heart,
These sovereign thrones, are all supplied, and fill'd

Away before me to sweet beds of flowers:
Love-thoughts lie rich when canopied with bowers.

so I, being Master Parson, am Master Parson; for,
what is 'that' but 'that,' and 'is' but 'is'?
