- She should haue dy’de heereafter;
- There would haue beene a time for such a word:
- To morrow, and to morrow, and to morrow,
- Creepes in this petty pace from day to day,
- To the last Syllable of Recorded time:
- And all our yesterdayes, haue lighted Fooles
- The way to dusty death. Out, out, breefe Candle,
- Life’s but a walking Shadow, a poore Player,
- That struts and frets his houre vpon the Stage,
- And then is heard no more. It is a Tale
- Told by an Ideot, full of sound and fury
- Signifying nothing.
