And therefore go on your way, and look that ye be of good comfort, for all shall be for your worship and for the best, and Perdy a twelvemonth will soon be done, and trust me, fair knight, I shall be true to you, and never to betray you, but to my death I shall love you and none other.
"Le Morte D'Arthur, Volume I (of II) King Arthur and of his Noble Knights of the Round Table"
Thomas Malory
The 'solus' in thy most mervailous face; The 'solus' in thy teeth, and in thy throat, And in thy hateful lungs, yea, in thy maw, Perdy; And, which is worse, within thy nasty mouth!
"King-Henry-V"
Shakespeare, William
For if the King like not the tragedy, Why, then, belike he likes it not, Perdy- may not be said to Horatio at all, but to one of the players who may be hanging about the stage waiting for instructions after the sudden interruption of the performance.
"Shakespeare in the Theatre"
William Poel
