Nor set down aught in _malice_. Every obstacle which partisan _malevolence_ could create he has had to encounter. His flight is occasioned rather by the _malignity_ of his countrymen than by the enmity of the Egyptians. Where the soul sours, and gradual _rancor_ grows, Imbitter'd more from peevish day to day. Peace in their mouthes, and all _rancor_ and vengeance in their hartes [hearts]. For them the gracious Duncan have I murder'd; Put _rancors_ in the vessel of my peace Only for them. Her _resentment_ against the king seems not to have abated. Mrs. W. was in high _dudgeon_; her heels clattered on the red-tiled floor, and she whisked about the house like a parched pea upon a drum-head. If I can catch him once upon the hip, I will feed fat the ancient _grudge_ I bear him. Men of this character pursue a _grudge_ unceasingly, and never forget or forgive. And since you ne'er provoked their _spite_, Depend upon't their judgment's right. <Marriage, matrimony, wedlock>. (With this group compare the _matrimonial_ group in Exercise C, above.) _Marriages_ are made in heaven. Hasty _marriage_ seldom proveth well. A man finds himself seven years older the day after his _marriage_. Let me not to the _marriage_ of true minds Admit impediments. _Marriage_ is the best state for man in general; and every man is a worse man in proportion as he is unfit for the married state. _Matrimony_--the high sea for which no compass has yet been invented. _Wedlock's_ a lane where there is no turning. What is _wedlock_ forced, but a hell, An age of discord and continual strife? <Mercy, clemency, lenity, leniency, lenience, forbearance>. Teach me to feel another's woe, To hide the fault I see; That _mercy_ I to others show, That _mercy_ show to me. The quality of _mercy_ is not strain'd, It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven Upon the place beneath: it is twice bless'd; It blesseth him that gives and him that takes; * * * * * And earthly power doth then show likest God's When _mercy_ seasons justice. _Clemency_ is the surest proof of a true monarch. _Lenity_ will operate with greater force, in some instances, than vigor. All the fellows tried to persuade the Master to greater _leniency_, but in vain. It will be necessary that this acceptance should be followed up by measures of the utmost _lenien
