Ere

Famous quotes containing the word ere:

    Our kindred, though they be long ere they be wooed, they are constant being won; they are burrs, I can tell you, they’ll stick where they are thrown.

    There have been,
    Or I am much deceived, cuckolds ere now,
    And many a man there is, even at this present,
    Now, while I speak this, holds his wife by th’arm,
    That little thinks she has been sluiced in’s absence,
    And his pond fished by his next neighbor, by
    Sir Smile, his neighbor.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    For, ere Demetrius looked on Hermia’s eyne,
    He hailed down oaths that he was only mine,
    And when this hail some heat from Hermia felt,
    So he dissolved, and showers of oaths did melt.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
