Sir, as I told you always, her beauty and her brain
go not together: she's a good sign, but I have seen
small reflection of her wit.

Cymbeline

Posthumus Leonatus

Very true;
And so, I hope, he came by't. Back my ring:
Render to me some corporal sign about her,
More evident than this; for this was stolen.

Cymbeline

Pisanio

1859

I'll give but notice you are dead and send him
Some bloody sign of it; for 'tis commanded

And that will well confirm it.
