I would not hear your enemy say so, Nor shall you do mine ear that violence, To make it truster of your own report Against yourself: I knew you are no truant.
"McGuffey's Fifth Eclectic Reader"
William Holmes McGuffey
I would not hear your enemy say so; Nor shall you do mine ear that violence, To make it truster of your own report Against yourself: I know you are no truant.
"Hamlet"
William Shakespeare
Not many days later, when her stepmother and some friends, "poor souls and full-dress bodies," had gone out to dinner, she penned another long letter to the same correspondent, a letter delightfully fresh in tone and full of her personality:- In a few days I trust-you know I am a great truster-you will receive a packet franked by Lord Bathurst, containing only a little pocket-book-Friendship's Offering for 1825, dizened out.
