 LADY MACBETH:  What devil hath caused this sorrow, ho!


          

 SPARKY*:  Look to the Twins, O' Gentle Lady.


          

 MACDUFF:  (Pointing to the Tigers) Why do they hold their

            tongues, who most may claim this pennant for

            themselves?


          

 SPARKY:  What should be spoken here where our fate,

           hidden in an auger-hole, hath rushed and seized

           us?  Let us away to Detroit where our tears are

           not yet brewed.


          

 LADY MACBETH:  Nay, my Lord!  Let not this strong sorrow

                 set one foot in motion.  Pray, suffer exposure

                 to the devil one time hence.  Meet i' the Dome

                 together and see what the e'en brings.  On the

                 morrow then, depart!


                                            William Shakespeare
