“The greatest, or rather the most prominent, part of this city was constructed with the design to offer the deadest resistance to leaden and iron missiles that might be cast against it.

“Beatrice. Let me go with that I came, which is, with knowing what hath passed between you and Claudio.

—William Shakespeare (15641616)
