    I hate ingratitude more in a man
    Than lying, vainness, babbling, drunkenness,
    Or any taint of vie whose strong corruption
    Inhabits our frail blood.

This was the most unkindest cut of all;
For when the noble Caesar saw him stab,

Even at the base of Pompey's statue
(Which all the while ran blood) great Caesar fell.

On the bare earth exposed he lies,
With not a friend to close his eyes.

More hideous when thou show'st thee in a child
Than the sea-monster.
