3	Two Gentlemen of Verona [I, 1]	Speed	131	Sir, I could perceive nothing at all from her; no, not so much as a ducat for delivering your letter: and being so hard to me that brought your mind, I fear she'll prove as hard to you in telling your mind.

15	Two Gentlemen of Verona [III, 1]	Launce	1433	Why, that word makes the faults gracious. Well, I'll have her; and if it be a match, as nothing is impossible,—
16	Two Gentlemen of Verona [III, 2]	Proteus	1525	Say that upon the altar of her beauty You sacrifice your tears, your sighs, your heart: Write till your ink be dry, and with your tears Moist it again, and frame some feeling line That may discover such integrity: For Orpheus' lute was strung with poets' sinews, Whose golden touch could soften steel and stones, Make tigers tame and huge leviathans Forsake unsounded deeps to dance on sands. After your dire-lamenting elegies, Visit by night your lady's chamber-window With some sweet concert; to their instruments Tune a deploring dump: the night's dead silence Will well become such sweet-complaining grievance. This, or else nothing, will inherit her.
