- "How ill this taper burns! Ha! who comes here?
- I think it is the weakness of mine eyes
- That shapes this monstrous apparition.
- It comes upon me.—Art thou any thing?
- Art thou some god, some angel, or some devil,
- That makest my blood cold and my hair to stare?
- Speak to me what thou art."-The Tragedy of Julius Caesar (act IV, Scene 2)
