It And her immortal part with angels lives.
Romeo and Juliet (1597)
Within this wall of flesh
There is a soul counts thee her creditor.
King John (1598)
Think'st thou I'll endanger my soul gratis?
Thy soul's flight,
If it find heaven, must find it out to-night.
Macbeth (1605)
He is not lolling on a lewd love-bed,
But on his knees at meditation;
Not dallying with a brace of courtesans,
But meditating with two deep divines.
Look, here's the warrant, Claudio, for thy death:
'Tis now dead midnight, and by eight tomorrow
Thou must be made immortal.
Measure for Measure (1603)
I hold it ever,
Virtue and cunning were endowments greater
Than nobleness and riches: careless heirs
May the two latter darken and expend;
But immortality attends the former,
Making a man a god.
