SATURNINUS: Noble patricians, patrons of my right, / Defend the justice of my cause with arms.
Hamlet: Bernardo: Who's there? Macbeth: Witch 1: When shall we three meet again in thunder, lightning, or in rain? Othello: Roderigo: Tush, never tell me; I take it much unkindly that thou, Iago, who hast had my purse as if the strings were thine, shouldst know of this,-- King Lear: Earl of Kent: I thought the king had more affected the Duke of Albany than Cornwall.
Hamlet: Fortinbras: Go, bid the soldiers shoot. Macbeth: Malcolm: So, thanks to all at once and to each, whom we invite to see us crown'd at Scone. Othello: Lodovico: Myself will straight aboard, and to the state this heavy act with heavy heart relate. King Lear: Edgar: The oldest hath borne most: we that are young shall never see so much, nor live so long.
