William Shakespeare
Angels are bright still, though the brightest fell.
William Shakespeare
Some glory in their birth , some in their skill , Some in their wealth , some in their bodies' force , Some in their garments, though new-fangled ill Some in their hawks and hounds , some in their horse And every humor hath his adjunct pleasure , Wherein it finds a joy above the rest .
William Shakespeare
That affable familiar ghost Which nightly gulls him with intelligence.
William Shakespeare
