   • 1863, Sir Henry Taylor, Philip van Artevelde:

     How say'st thou that he lied? Sirs, it is true
     I with this craven beggarly companion —
     Of whose accompliceship to do the deed,
     And not the deed itself, I speak with shame —
     I with this caitiff truly did conspire,
     For good and ample reasons, to remove
     Sir Walter D'Arlon from this troublesome world.
