As You Like It

'Tis he; slink by, and note him.

Merchant of Venice

Nay, we will slink away in supper-time,
Disguise us at my lodging and return,
All in an hour.

Timon of Athens
[IV, 2]

Second Servant

1616

As we do turn our backs
From our companion thrown into his grave,
So his familiars to his buried fortunes
Slink all away, leave their false vows with him,
Like empty purses pick'd; and his poor self,
A dedicated beggar to the air,
With his disease of all-shunn'd poverty,
Walks, like contempt, alone. More of our fellows.
