Here is my journey's end, here is my butt,
  And very seamark of my utmost sail:
    Do you go back dismayed?
      - Othello the Moor of Venice
         (Othello at V, ii) [Death]

I have done the state some service, and they know't.
  No more of that. I pray you, in your letters,
    When you shall these unlucky deeds relate,
      Speak of me as I am. Nothing extenuate,
        Nor set down aught in malice.
      - Othello the Moor of Venice
         (Othello at V, ii) [Justice]

I kissed thee, ere I killed thee.
      - Othello the Moor of Venice
         (Othello at V, ii) [Proverbs]

I pray you, in your letters,
  When you shall these unlucky deeds relate,
    Speak of me as I am. Nothing extenuate,
      Nor set down aught in malice. Then must you speak
        Of one that loved not wisely, but too well;
          Of one not easily jealous, but, being wrought,
            Perplexed in the extreme; of one whose hand,
              Like the base Judean, threw a pearl away
                Richer than all his tribe; of one whose subdued eyes,
                  Albeit unused to the melting mood,
                    Drop tears as fast as the Arabian trees
                      Their med'cinable gum.
      - Othello the Moor of Venice
         (Othello at V, ii) [Love]

I will play the swan,
  And die in music.
      - Othello the Moor of Venice
         (Emilia at V, ii) [Swans]

If you bethink yourself of any crime
  Unreconciled as yet to heaven and grace,
    Solicit for it straight.
      - Othello the Moor of Venice
         (Othello at V, ii) [Prayer]

It is the very error of the moon.
  She comes more nearer earth than she was wont
    And makes men mad.
      - Othello the Moor of Venice
         (Othello at V, ii) [Moon]

Myself will straight aboard, and to the state
  This heavy act with heavy heart relate.
      - Othello the Moor of Venice
         (Lodovico at V, ii) [Books (Last Lines)]

O, I were damn'd beneath all depth in hell
  But that I did proceed upon just grounds
    To this extremity.
      - Othello the Moor of Venice
         (Othello at V, ii) [Justice]

O, the more angel she,
  And you the blacker devil!
      - Othello the Moor of Venice
         (Emilia at V, ii) [Comparison]

Then must you speak
  Of one that loved not wisely, but too well;
    Of one not easily jealous, but, being wrought,
      Perplexed in the extreme; of one whose hand,
        Like the base Judean, threw a pearl away
          Richer than all his tribe; of one whose subdued eyes
            Albeit unused to the melting mood,
              Drop tears as fast as the Arabian trees
                Their med'cinable gum.
      - Othello the Moor of Venice
         (Othello at V, ii) [Tears]

Therefore confess thee freely of thy sin;
  For to deny each article with oath
    Cannot remove nor choke the strong conception
      That I do groan withal. Thou art to die.
      - Othello the Moor of Venice
         (Othello at V, ii) [Confession]

This is the night
  That either makes me or fordoes me quite.
      - Othello the Moor of Venice (Iago at V, ii)
        [Night]

This sorrow's heavenly;
  It strikes where it doth love.
      - Othello the Moor of Venice
         (Othello at V, ii) [Sorrow]

Yet I'll not shed her blood,
  Nor scar that whiter skin of hers than snow,
    And smooth as monumental alabaster.
      - Othello the Moor of Venice
         (Othello at V, ii) [Beauty]

Who am no more but as the tops of trees,
  Which fence the roots they grow by and defend them--
    Make both my body pine and soul to languish,
      And punish that before that he would punish.
      - Pericles Prince of Type
         (Pericles at I, ii) [Trees]

So, on your patience evermore attending,
  New joy wait on you! Here our play has ending.
      - Pericles Prince of Tyre
         (Gower at epilogue) [Books (Last Lines)]

To sing a song that old was sung,
  From ashes ancient Gower is come,
    Assuming man's infirmities
      To glad your ear and please your eyes.
      - Pericles Prince of Tyre
         (Gower (chorus) at I, chorus)
        [Books (First Lines)]

Before thee stands this fair Hesperides,
  With golden fruit, but dangerous to be touched;
    For death-like dragons here affright thee hard.
      - Pericles Prince of Tyre
         (Antiochus, King of Antioch at I, i)
        [Fruits]

Few love to hear the sins they love to act.
      - Pericles Prince of Tyre (Pericles at I, i)
        [Proverbs : Sin]

Great king,
  Few love to hear the sins they love to act.
      - Pericles Prince of Tyre (Pericles at I, i)
        [Proverbs : Sin]

It fits thee not to ask the reason why:
  Because we bid it.
      - Pericles Prince of Tyre
         (Antiochus, King of Antioch at I, i)
        [Obedience]

See where she comes, apparelled like the spring,
  Graces her subjects, and her thoughts the king
    Of every virtue gives renown to men!
      - Pericles Prince of Tyre (Pericles at I, i)
        [Apparel]

Thus ready for the way of life or death,
  I wait the sharpest blow, Antiochus.
      - Pericles Prince of Tyre (Pericles at I, i)
        [Resignation]

Who has a book of all that monarchs do,
  He's more secure to keep it shut than shown;
    For vice repeated is like the wand'ring wind,
      Blows dust in others' eye, to spread itself;
        And yet the end of all is bought thus dear,
          The breath is gone, and the sore eyes see clear
            To stop the air would hurt them.
      - Pericles Prince of Tyre (Pericles at I, i)
        [Vice]
