2

I,3,337

No, madam, 'tis not so well that I am poor, though
many of the rich are damned: but, if I may have...

3

I,3,342

I do beg your good will in this case.

4

I,3,344

In Isbel's case and mine own. Service is no
heritage: and I think I shall never have the...

5

I,3,349

by the flesh; and he must needs go that the devil drives.

I,3,352

Faith, madam, I have other holy reasons such as they
are.

I,3,355

I have been, madam, a wicked creature, as you and
all flesh and blood are; and, indeed, I do marry...

8

I,3,359

I am out o' friends, madam; and I hope to have
friends for my wife's sake.

9

I,3,362

You're shallow, madam, in great friends; for the
knaves come to do that for me which I am aweary of....

10

I,3,377

way:...

11

I,3,388

Why the Grecians sacked Troy?...

12

I,3,399

One good woman in ten, madam; which is a purifying
o' the song: would God would serve the world so all...

13

I,3,408

That man should be at woman's command, and yet no
hurt done! Though honesty be no puritan, yet it...

14

II,2,827

I will show myself highly fed and lowly taught: I
know my business is but to the court.

15

II,2,831

Truly, madam, if God have lent a man any manners, he
may easily put it off at court: he that cannot make...

16

II,2,840

It is like a barber's chair that fits all buttocks,
the pin-buttock, the quatch-buttock, the brawn...

II,2,844

As fit as ten groats is for the hand of an attorney,
as your French crown for your taffeta punk, as Tib's...

18

II,2,853

From below your duke to beneath your constable, it
will fit any question.

19

II,2,857

But a trifle neither, in good faith, if the learned
should speak truth of it: here it is, and all that...

20

II,2,864

O Lord, sir! There's a simple putting off. More,
more, a hundred of them.

21

II,2,867

O Lord, sir! Thick, thick, spare not me.

22

II,2,869

O Lord, sir! Nay, put me to't, I warrant you.

23

II,2,871

O Lord, sir! spare not me.

II,2,876

I ne'er had worse luck in my life in my 'O Lord,
sir!' I see things may serve long, but not serve ever.

II,2,885

Not much commendation to them.

II,4,1206

She is not well; but yet she has her health: she's
very merry; but yet she is not well: but thanks be...

II,4,1212

Truly, she's very well indeed, but for two things.

30

II,4,1214

One, that she's not in heaven, whither God send her
quickly! the other that she's in earth, from whence...

31

II,4,1223

So that you had her wrinkles and I her money,
I would she did as you say.

32

II,4,1226

Marry, you are the wiser man; for many a man's
tongue shakes out his master's undoing: to say...

33

II,4,1232

You should have said, sir, before a knave thou'rt a
knave; that's, before me thou'rt a knave: this had...

34

II,4,1236

Did you find me in yourself, sir? or were you
taught to find me? The search, sir, was profitable;...

35

III,2,1400

By my troth, I take my young lord to be a very
melancholy man.

36

III,2,1403

soldiers and my young lady!

40

comfort; your son will not be killed so soon as I...

III,2,1438

So say I, madam, if he run away, as I hear he does:
the danger is in standing to't; that's the loss of...

IV,5,2478

Indeed, sir, she was the sweet marjoram of the
salad, or rather, the herb of grace.

43

IV,5,2481

I am no great Nebuchadnezzar, sir; I have not much
skill in grass.

44

IV,5,2484

A fool, sir, at a woman's service, and a knave at a man's.

45

IV,5,2486

I would cozen the man of his wife and do his service.

46

IV,5,2488

And I would give his wife my bauble, sir, to do her service.

47

IV,5,2490

At your service.

48

IV,5,2492

Why, sir, if I cannot serve you, I can serve as
great a prince as you are.

49

IV,5,2495

Faith, sir, a' has an English name; but his fisnomy

O madam, yonder's my lord your son with a patch of
velvet on's face: whether there be a scar under't...

54

IV,5,2557

But it is your carbonadoed face.

55

IV,5,2560

hats and most courteous feathers, which bow the head...

56

V,2,2619

Truly, fortune's displeasure is but sluttish, if it
smell so strongly as thou speakest of: I will...

57

V,2,2625

Indeed, sir, if your metaphor stink, I will stop my
nose; or against any man's metaphor. Prithee, get...
