Ariel of course .. Prospero's fairy servant whom he saved from Caliban in 'The Tempest'. Unfortunately in today's climate Ariel may no longer have many bees to suck with, nor bat's backs to fly upon!!!! == ==

Meaning of the poem sigh no more by William Shakespeare?

Guys suck. They are unfaithful and always cheat on you. P.S. I'm not bitter, it is seriously the meaning! By the way, it's a song lyric from his play Much Ado About Nothing, not a poem.


What does 'Where the bee sucks there suck you' mean?

The correct quotation from Shakespeare's The Tempest is as follows: Where the bee sucks. there suck I: In a cowslip's bell I lie; There I couch when owls do cry. On the bat's back I do fly After summer merrily. Merrily, merrily shall I live now Under the blossom that hangs on the bough. It's a song sung by Ariel, who's a kind of fairy, and it's all about being a fairy. What does a bee suck? Nectar from a flower. Where the bee sucks is in a flower. Ariel says he or she does the same as the bee. The next line, "in a cowslip's bell I lie" says the same--Ariel is living in a flower. Don't get put off by the reversed words "there suck I" instead of "there I suck". Try substituting other verbs. "Where Paris Hilton shops, there shop I", "Where the US Army fights, there fight I", or "Where the Pope prays, there pray I."

What does 'fat-kidneyed foot licker' mean in Romeo and Juliet?

Defined by Shakespeare, "Fat-kidneyed" is used as an insult to say that someone is gross and clumsy or stupid. A "footlicker" is someone who is toady, a lackey, or a suck-up type of person. So a "fat-kidneyed footlicker" would basically be a gross, clumsy suck-up.
