Farewell, Monsieur Traveller: look you lisp and wear strange suits, disable all the benefits of your own country.
The sundry contemplation of my travels, in which my often rumination wraps me in a most humorous sadness.
When I was at home, I was in a better place; but travellers must be content.
Travell'd gallants,
That fill the court with quarrels, talk, and tailors.
Henry VIII (1613)
For honour travels in a strait so narrow,
Where one but goes abreast.
Troilus and Cressida (1602)
And in his brain,
Which is as dry as the remainder biscuit
After a voyage, he hath strange places cramm'd
With observation, the which he vents
In mangled forms.
