An thou had'st been set in the stocks for that question, thou, had'st well deserved it. Kent. Why, fool? Fool. We'll set thee to school to an ant, to teach thee there is no labouring in the winter. All that follow their noses are led by their eyes, but BLIND MEN. Kent. Where learned'st thou that, fool? Fool. Not in the stocks, fool.
"Lack-a-day! how could'st help the same?" "Didn't it hurt sore, Rose?" asked John Thurston. "Not nigh so much as you might think," answered Rose, brightly. "At the first it caused me some grief; but truly, the more it burned the less it hurt, till at last it was scarce any hurt at all." "But thou had'st the pot in thine other hand, maid; wherefore not have hit him a good swing therewith?"
In a poem on Shakespeare, Ben Jonson wrote: "Thou had'st small Latin and less Greek." Shakespeare is, however, the mightiest master of the English tongue. He uses 15,000 different words, while the second greatest writer in our language employs only 7000. A great novelist like Thackeray has a vocabulary of about 5000 words, while many uneducated laborers do not use over 600 words.

He had by no means recovered his daughter's assertion that she would never marry anyone but Charles Heyward. "Good evening, Jacques, I sent for thee on a matter of great importance to thyself. I know thou did'st love my girl Marguerite, and that thou had'st a desire to marry her.
But in a while, as Samson visited His wife, in the wheat harvest with a kid, To her into her chamber he would go, The which her father would not let him do; But said, I thought that thou had'st quite forsook her, Wherefore I gave consent, and thy friend took her; Doth not her sister's beauty her's exceed, Though young? I pray then take her in her stead.
Deceived by weak or wicked men, How gallantly thou stood'st at bay, Like lion hunted to his den, Let France tell, on that bloody day. No boastful splendour round thy bier, No blazon'd trophies o'er thy grave; But thou had'st more, the soldier's tear, The heart warm offering of the brave.
However, says Sir ROGER, I can never think that she will have a man that is half a year older than I am, and a noted republican into the bargain. WILL HONEYCOMB, who looks upon love as his particular province, interrupting our friend with a jaunty laugh; 'I thought, Knight, says he, 'thou had'st lived long enough in the world, not to pin thy happiness upon one that is a woman and a widow.
Tom felt their want of kindliness towards him; and now that he had nothing to do but rest and eat, he began to feel very sad, and his eyes kept filling with tears, which he brushed away with the back of his hand, not wishing to have them seen. But his uncle noticed him. "Thou had'st better have had a glass at the Spread Eagle," said he, compassionately. "No; I only am rather tired.
I swore to him, senators of Venice, to be true to die in his cause, should it be necessary, and to help him to his bride. This pledge have I redeemed.

Had'st thou no thought for thyself?" "Eccellenza, but little.
