Much Ado About Nothing — IV. 1

Braggarts

It will come to pass,

That every braggart shall be found an ass.

All’s Well That Ends Well — IV. 3

They that have the voice of lions, and the act of bares, are they not monsters?

Troilus and Cressida — III. 2

Calumny

Be thou as chaste as ice, as pure as snow, thou shalt not escape calumny.

Hamlet — III. 1

No might nor greatness in mortality

Can censure ‘scape; back-wounding calumny

The whitest virtue strikes. What king so strong,

Can tie the gall up in the slanderous tongue?
