Neither my place, nor aught I heard of business, Hath raised me from my bed; nor doth the general care Take hold on me; for my particular grief Is of so floodgate and o'erbearing nature That it engluts and swallows other sorrows, And it is still itself.
1603-4 Brabanzio, learning of Desdemona's marriage. Othello, act 1, sc.3, l.55-8.
