Slander, Whose edge is sharper than the sword; whose tongue Outvenoms all the worms of Nile; whose breath Rides on the posting winds, and doth belie All corners of the world; kings, queens, and states, Maids, matrons, nay, the secrets of the grave, This viperous slander enters.
Cymbeline -- III. 4.

Macbeth -- II. 2.
SUICIDE.
Against self-slaughter There is a prohibition so divine, That cravens my weak hand.
Cymbeline -- III. 4.
TEMPERANCE.
Though I look old, yet am I strong and l.u.s.ty: For in my youth I never did apply Hot and rebellious liquors in my blood; Nor did not with unbashful forehead woo The means of weakness and debility: Therefore my age is as a l.u.s.ty winter, Frosty, but kindly.
As You Like It -- II. 3.
