Twelfth Night
[II, 3]

Sir Toby Belch

706

A false conclusion: I hate it as an unfilled can.
To be up after midnight and to go to bed then, is
early: so that to go to bed after midnight is to go
to bed betimes. Does not our life consist of the
four elements?

Sir Andrew Aguecheek

An't be any way, it must be with valour; for policy
I hate: I had as lief be a Brownist as a
politician.

Twelfth Night
[III, 4]

Viola

1905

I know of none;
Nor know I you by voice or any feature:
I hate ingratitude more in a man
Than lying, vainness, babbling, drunkenness,
Or any taint of vice whose strong corruption
Inhabits our frail blood.

[V, 1]

Sir Toby Belch

Then he's a rogue, and a passy measures panyn: I
hate a drunken rogue.
