Strana 36 - LENOX. MACB.

And madly play with my forefathers' joints And pluck the mangled Tybalt from his shroud
Strana 124 - come of nothing: speak again. COR. Unhappy that I am, I cannot heave My heart into my mouth : I love your majesty According to my bond ; nor more, nor less. LEAR. How now, Cordelia? mend your speech a little, Lest it may mar your fortunes. COR. Good my lord, You have begot me, bred me,
Strana 126 - Why have my sisters husbands, If they say They love you, all ? Haply when I shall wed, That lord, whose hand must take my plight, shall carry Half my love with him, half my care and duty : Sure I shall never marry like my sisters, To love my father all. KING LEAR.
