What for? when by moustache and beard we end

The nuisance thus encouraging the locks

That flesh is hair to—’tis a consummation

Devoutly to be wished. To shave? To swear?

To swear! perchance, an oath—ay, there’s the rub;

For as we shave, perhaps the razor slips,

And as we barberously hack our chin,

Must we then pause; in every respect

There is calamity in such a shave.

Oh, who would bear shivering in the cold
