Cymbeline
[IV, 2]

Imogen

2320

So man and man should be;
But clay and clay differs in dignity,
Whose dust is both alike. I am very sick.

Cymbeline
[IV, 2]

Belarius

2635

Great griefs, I see, medicine the less; for Cloten
Is quite forgot. He was a queen's son, boys;
And though he came our enemy, remember
He was paid for that: though mean and
mighty, rotting
Together, have one dust, yet reverence,
That angel of the world, doth make distinction
Of place 'tween high and low. Our foe was princely
And though you took his life, as being our foe,
Yet bury him as a prince.

Cymbeline
[IV, 2]

Guiderius

2657

Fear no more the heat o' the sun,
Nor the furious winter's rages;
Thou thy worldly task hast done,
Home art gone, and ta'en thy wages:
Golden lads and girls all must,
As chimney-sweepers, come to dust.

Cymbeline
[IV, 2]

Arviragus

2663

Fear no more the frown o' the great;
Thou art past the tyrant's stroke;
Care no more to clothe and eat;
To thee the reed is as the oak:
The sceptre, learning, physic, must
All follow this, and come to dust.

Cymbeline
[IV, 2]

Guiderius

2673

[with Arviragus] All lovers young, all lovers must
Consign to thee, and come to dust.
