1

II,1,548

Now, my co-mates and brothers in exile,
Hath not old custom made this life more sweet...

2

II,1,569

Come, shall we go and kill us venison?
And yet it irks me the poor dappled fools,...

3

II,1,593

But what said Jaques?
Did he not moralize this spectacle?

4

II,1,614

And did you leave him in this contemplation?

5

II,1,617

Show me the place;
I love to cope him in these sullen fits,...

6

II,7,894

I think he be transform'd into a beast;
For I can nowhere find him like a man.

7

II,7,898

If he, compact of jars, grow musical,
We shall have shortly discord in the spheres....

8

II,7,903

Why, how now, monsieur! what a life is this,
That your poor friends must woo your company?...

9

II,7,929

What fool is this?

10

II,7,938

Thou shalt have one.

11

II,7,957

Fie on thee! I can tell what thou wouldst do.

12

II,7,959

Most mischievous foul sin, in chiding sin;
For thou thyself hast been a libertine,...

13

II,7,988

Art thou thus bolden'd, man, by thy distress?
Or else a rude despiser of good manners,...

14

II,7,998

What would you have? Your gentleness shall force
More than your force move us to gentleness.

15

II,7,1001

Sit down and feed, and welcome to our table.

16

II,7,1016

True is it that we have seen better days,
And have with holy bell been knoll'd to church,...

17

II,7,1030

Go find him out.
And we will nothing waste till you return.

18

II,7,1033

Thou seest we are not all alone unhappy:
This wide and universal theatre...

19

II,7,1066

Welcome. Set down your venerable burden,
And let him feed.

20

II,7,1071

Welcome; fall to. I will not trouble you
As yet to question you about your fortunes....

21

II,7,1092

If that you were the good Sir Rowland's son,
As you have whisper'd faithfully you were,...

22

V,4,2402

Dost thou believe, Orlando, that the boy
Can do all this that he hath promised?

23

V,4,2410

That would I, had I kingdoms to give with her.

24

V,4,2429

I do remember in this shepherd boy
Some lively touches of my daughter's favour.

25

V,4,2455

I like him very well.

26

V,4,2463

By my faith, he is very swift and sententious.

27

V,4,2498

He uses his folly like a stalking-horse, and under the
presentation of that he shoots his wit....

28

V,4,2511

If there be truth in sight, you are my daughter.

29

V,4,2541

O my dear niece, welcome thou art to me!
Even daughter, welcome in no less degree.

30

V,4,2562

Welcome, young man.
Thou offer'st fairly to thy brothers' wedding:...

31

V,4,2590

Stay, Jaques, stay.

32

V,4,2593

Proceed, proceed. We will begin these rites,
As we do trust they'll end, in true delights. [A dance] Exeunt EPILOGUE
