Nay, she should ride at thy right hand and laugh To see so fair a lordly field of strife Shine for her sake, whose lips thy love bids quaff For pledge of Trustless troth the blood of men.
"Locrine - A Tragedy"
Algernon Charles Swinburne
Here as always first in the field-the genuine and golden harvest-field of Shakespearean criticism, Charles Lamb has cited a passage from Green's Tu Quoque-a comedy miserably misreprinted in Dodsley's Old Plays-on which he observes that "this is so like Shakespeare, that we seem to remember it," being as it is a girl's gentle lamentation over the selfish, exacting, suspicious and Trustless love of man, as contrasted with the swift simple surrender of a woman's love at the first heartfelt appeal to her pity-"we seem to remember it," says Lamb, as a speech of Desdemona uttered on a first perception or suspicion of jealousy or alienation in Othello.
"A Study of Shakespeare"
Algernon Charles Swinburne
Still we went every day to the gallery and took our old place there, only the countenance of my father was daily growing paler, his step weaker, and his poor boy more Trustless and weak.
