As if thou e'er wert angry
But with thy tailor! and yet that poor shred
Can bring more to the making up of a man,

And, at the best, shows but a bastard read more

He
That kills himself to avoid misery, fears it,
And, at the best, shows but a bastard valour.
This life's a fort committed to my trust,
Which I must not yield up, till it be forced:
Nor will I. He's not valiant that dares die,
But he that boldly bears calamity.

Ill news, madam,
Are swallow-winged, but what's good
