I must repeat to you, that I do not look with an evil Eye upon the Profit of the Idols, or the Diversion of the Lovers; what I hope from this Remonstrance, is only that we plain People may not be served as if we were Idolaters; but that from the time of publishing this in your Paper, the Idols would mix Ratsbane only for their Admirers, and take more care of us who don't love them.
Is there not ratsbane of various kinds? And hemp, and steel? Most true, Sathanas...but it will be time enough to use them when I have lost the game I am but losing, ... and while my friends, my mother, father, brothers, sisters live, the duty of not breaking their hearts would still remain....I want health, health, health!
Oh! when I remember that, while I sit here in comfort, perhaps my poor boy lies dead in some savage place, and all along of that girl: there, her very name is ratsbane to me. I tremble all over when I hear it." "I'll not say anything, nor do anything to grieve you worse, mother," said Kate tenderly; but she sighed.
It would have made the fortune of a tragic actress, could she have borrowed it for the moment when she fumbles in her bosom for the concealed dagger, or the exceedingly sharp bodkin, or mingles the ratsbane in her lover's bowl of wine or her rival's cup of tea.
"For the love of Heaven, no violence!" said the astrologer. "It cannot but be looked closely into. Here, honest Lambourne, wilt thou pledge me to the health of the noble Earl of Leicester and Master Richard Varney?" "I will, mine old Albumazar I will, my trusty vender of ratsbane.

In truth, I have never seen the American public in a state at all similar, and believe that we are incapable of it.
If there are rat holes have them stopped with pieces of brick, and broken glass bottles; never use ratsbane without the greatest caution, as it is a dangerous remedy. No food or milk should be in the cellar at the time, and keep it locked up all the while it is there. I have heard of lives being lost by it.
Catch them then, and you need not fear that we shall treat you like the Pied Piper of Hamelin. You have committed sundry rascalities, no doubt? A pardon shall be made out for you. You want a patent or a privilege for your ratsbane? You shall have it. So to work, in the name of St. Muscipulus! and you may keep the tails and skins."
"He is talking philosophy," replied the doctor, with a comic grin, "and recommending a vegetable diet and pure water." "A devilish scoundrel," said Manifold. "He's a rat, too. Doolittle's a rat; but I'll poison him; yes, I'll dose him with ratsbane, and then I can eat, drink, and swill away. Is the philosopher's wife a cripple?" "He has no wife," replied Doolittle.
I will see, I really will see, Brother Bruno, when these little matters are disposed of, what I can do for the girl." "Do! Give her ratsbane!" sneered Warner laconically. Bruno's reply was a quotation. "`While thy servant was busy here and there, he was gone." Then he rose and left the room. "Dear, dear!" said Father Nicholas.
