Perdition catch my soul, But I do love thee! and when I love thee not, Chaos is come again.

Act iii. Sc. 3. Good name, in man and woman, dear my lord, Is the immediate jewel of their souls. Who steals my purse, steals trash ; 't is something,

The meat it feeds on.

Farewell the tranquil mind! farewell content !
Farewell the plumed troop, and the wars,
