As You Like It
[III, 2]

Celia

1332

It is as easy to count atomies as to resolve the
propositions of a lover; but take a taste of my finding him, and
relish it with good observance. I found him under a tree, like a
dropp'd acorn.

Midsummer Night's Dream
[III, 2]

Lysander

1379

Get you gone, you dwarf;
You minimus, of hindering knot-grass made;
You bead, you acorn.

Tempest
[I, 2]

Prospero

Follow me.
Speak not you for him; he's a traitor. Come;
I'll manacle thy neck and feet together:
Sea-water shalt thou drink; thy food shall be
The fresh-brook muscles, wither'd roots and husks
Wherein the acorn cradled. Follow.
