  • bilby "CORIOLANUS: I will go wash;
    And when my face is fair you shall perceive
    Whether I blush or no: howbeit, I thank you;--
    I mean to stride your steed; and at all times
    To undercrest your good addition
    To the fairness of my power."
    - William Shakespeare, 'The Tragedy of Coriolanus'. Aug 28, 2009
