"Why hast thou lost the fresh blood in thy cheeks,

And given my treasures and my rights of thee

To thick-eyed musing and curst melancholy?

Tell me, sweet lord, what is't that takes from thee

Thy stomach, pleasure, and thy golden sleep?"

Macbeth says:—

"But let the frame of things disjoint, both the worlds suffer,

Ere we will eat our meal in fear, and sleep

In the affliction of these terrible dreams

That shake us nightly; better be with the dead."
