Pious Pervert
Thou rascal beadle, hold thy bloody hand!
Why dost thou lash that whore? Strip thine own back.
Thou hotly lusts to use her in that kind
For which thou whip’st her.
–King Lear,
Act IV, Scene vi

Thou rascal beadle, hold thy bloody hand!

–King Lear,
Act IV, Scene vi

This woman’s an easy glove, my lord,
she goes off and on at pleasure.
–All’s Well That Ends Well,
Act V, Scene iii

What, with my tongue in your tail? Nay, come again, Good Kate; I am a gentleman.
–Taming of the Shrew,
Act II, Scene i

She burn’d with love, as straw with fire flameth;
She burn’d out love, as soon as straw outburneth…
Was this a lover, or a lecher whether?
Bad in the best, though excellent in neither.
–-The Passionate Pilgrim

The expense of spirit in a waste of shame
Is lust in action; and till action, lust
Is perjured, murderous, bloody, full of blame,
Savage, extreme, rude, cruel, not to trust,
Enjoy’d no sooner but despised straight.
-Sonnet CXXIX (129)

Come, wilt thou see me ride?
And when I am on horseback, I will swear
I love thee infinitely.
^Henry IV Part 1,
Act II, Scene iii
