- "The milk of human kindness" (1.5.17 ff): unsexing
. . . I have given suck, and know
How tender ’tis to love the babe that milks me:
I would, while it was smiling in my face,
Have plucked my nipple from its boneless gums,
And dashed the brains out, had I so sworn as you
Have done to this.
(1.7.54-59)
