AGE. Let them die that age and sullens have; For both hast thou.
Who, weak with age, cannot support myself

And future ages groan for this foul act

Let them tell thee tales Of woeful ages long ago betid

Richard II. ii. 1.

ii. 2.

iv. 1.

The time shall not be many hours of age More than it is

To the pupil age of this present twelve o'clock at midnight

If speaking truth In this fine age were not thought flattery

Though not clean past your youth, hath yet some smack of age in you

All the other gifts appertinent to man, as the malice of this age shapes them
That are written down old with all the characters of age

You must learn to know such slanders of the age.

Old age, that ill layer up of beauty, can do no more spoil upon my face

Kind keepers of my weak decaying age

We will bestow you in some better place, Fitter for sickness and for crazy age.
When sapless age and weak unable limbs Should bring thy father to his drooping chair
My age was never tainted with such shame.

This dishonour in thine age Will bring thy head with sorrow to the ground!

[blocks in formation]

In duty bend thy knee to me, That bows unto the grave with mickle age

To achieve The silver livery of advised age

Richard III. iii. 1.

Shall be eternized in all age to come

Which, since, succeeding ages have re-edified

v. 3.

iii. 1.

Is it upon record, or else reported Successively from age to age
Methinks the truth should live from age to age

I prophesy the fearfull`st time to thee That ever wretched age hath looked upon
Thy age confirmed, proud, subtle, bloody, treacherous .

I with grief and extreme age shall perish, And never look upon thy face again

He would not in mine age Have left me naked to mine enemies.

The faint defects of age Must be the scene of mirth.

His pupil age Man-entered thus, he waxed like a sea

For you, be that you are, long; and your misery increase with your age!
His name remains To the ensuing age abhorred

Thou hast thus lovingly reserved The cordial of mine age to glad my heart.
Give me a staff of honour for mine age, But not a sceptre to control the world
This sight of death is as a bell, That warns my old age to a sepulchre
What further woe conspires against mine age?

>And that which should accompany old age, As honour, love, obedience

Age, thou art shamed! Rome, thou hast lost the breed of noble bloods!
When went there by an age, since the great flood, But it was famed with more than one man?
How many ages hence Shall this our lofty scene be acted over In states unborn?.

The argument of your praise, balm of your age, Most best, most dearest .
You see how full of changes his age is

The age is grown so picked that the toe of the peasant comes so near the heel of the courtier
And many more of the same bevy that I know the drossy age dotes on

'Tis the infirmity of his age; yet he hath ever but slenderly known himself
This policy and reverence of age makes the world bitter to the best of our times
Such men as may besort your age, And know themselves and
Dear daughter, I confess that I am old; Age is unnecessary.
You see me here, you gods, a poor old man, As full of grief as age; wretched in both!
It yet hath felt no age nor known no sorrow

Age cannot wither her, nor custom stale Her infinite variety

AGINCOURT. -The very casques That did affright the air at Agincourt.
Then call we this the field of Agincourt, Fought on the day of Crispin
AGITATION. — And so now I speak my agitation of the matter.

In this slumbery agitation, besides her walking and other actual performances
AGLET-BABY. — Marry him to a puppet or an aglet-baby.

AGNIZE. - I do agnize A natural and prompt alacrity I find in hardness

AGONY.

-

Charm ache with air and agony with words.

It cannot be; it is impossible: Mirth cannot move a soul in agony.
Awaked you not with this sore agony?

A-GROWING. He was the wretched'st thing when he was young, So long a-growing
Ague. My wind cooling my broth Would blow me to an ague
He will look as hollow as a ghost, As dim and meagre as an ague's fit
A lunatic lean-witted fool, Presuming on an ague's privilege.
This ague fit of fear is over-blown; An easy task it is to win our own.
Home without boots, and in foul weather too! How 'scapes he agues?
Worse than the sun in March, This praise doth nourish agues
An untimely ague Stayed me a prisoner in my chamber.

Danger, like an ague, subtly taints Even then when we sit idly in the sun
Here let them lie Till famine and the ague eat them up

A-HUNGRY. - 'T were as good a deed as to drink when a man 's a-hungry
AID. - Cannot, By the good aid that I of you shall borrow, Err in bestowing it
Expectation and surmise Of aids incertain should not be admitted

Which fate and metaphysical aid doth seem To have thee crowned withal
AIDANT. Be aidant and remediate In the good man's distress
AIM. My food, my fortune, and my sweet hope's aim

[ocr errors]

More grave and wrinkled than the ends and aims Of burning youth
A certain aim he took At a fair vestal throned by the west.

A poor sequestered stag, That from the hunter's aim had ta'en a hurt
I am not an impostor that proclaim Myself against the level of my aim
It ill beseems this presence to cry aim To these ill-tuned repetitions
The foemen may with as great aim level at the edge of a penknife
A sign of dignity, a garish flag, To be the aim of every dangerous shot
What you would work me to, I have some aim

I did present myself Even in the aim and very flash of it
Our safest way Is to avoid the aim.

AIMED. Do it so cunningly That my discovery be not aimed at

In faith, it is exceedingly well aimed

AIR. - Whom I left cooling of the air with sighs

The air breathes upon us here most sweetly

Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not

These our actors, As I foretold you, were all spirits and Are melted into air, into thin air

A solemn air and the best comforter To an unsettled fancy

The air hath starved the roses in her cheeks

Who dare tell her so? If I should speak, She would mock me into air

Charm ache with air and agony with words.

To the most wholesome physic of thy health-giving air

Spied a blossom passing fair Playing in the wanton air

Blow like sweet roses in this summer air.

Pale in her anger, washes all the air, That rheumatic diseases do abound

How all the other passions fleet to air, As doubtful thoughts!

AIR. When mine eyes did see Olivia first, Methought she purged the air of pestilence Twelfth Night, i. 1.
And make the babbling gossip of the air Cry out.

Methought it did relieve my passion much, More than light airs and recollected terms

Had the king permitted us, One of our souls had wandered in the air.
Who lined himself with hope, Eating the air on promise of supply .
That, when he speaks, The air, a chartered libertine, is still
From their misty jaws Breathe foul contagious darkness in the air
Would not let it forth To seek the empty, vast, and wandering air.
Who builds his hopes in air of your good looks, Lives like a drunken sailor on a mast.
And, like a dew-drop from the lion's mane, Be shook to air

I see thou wilt not trust the air With secrets

They made themselves air, into which they vanished

The noise of battle hurtled in the air, Horses did neigh, and dying men did groan
Fair is foul, and foul is fair: Hover through the fog and filthy air
Whither are they vanished?- Into the air

[merged small][ocr errors][merged small][merged small][merged small]

The air Nimbly and sweetly recommends itself Unto our gentle senses
Where they most breed and haunt, I have observed, The air is delicate

Thou know'st, the first time that we smell the air, We wawl and cry
Trifles light as air Are to the jealous confirmations strong As proofs of holy writ

Both are alike; and both alike we like. One must prove greatest
There is scarce truth enough alive to make societies secure.
You are the cruell'st she alive

Tell me what blessings I have here alive, That I should fear to die?

The bricks are alive at this day to testify it; therefore deny it not
Here lie I, Timon; who, alive, all living men did hate.

There shall be no money; all shall eat and drink on my score
Retailed to all posterity, Even to the general all-ending day
