What is a Shakespearean Quote with the word Entice in it?

Answer 1

Here are three to get you started:

"Do I entice you? Do I speak you fair?

Or, rather, do I not in plainest truth Tell you, I do not, nor I cannot love you?"

Spoken by Demetrius to Helena in Midsummer Night's Dream, act 2, scene 1, line 199-201.

"Then thus it must be; this doth Joan devise:

By fair persuasions, mix'd with sugar'd words,

We will entice the Duke of Burgundy

To leave the Talbot and to follow us."

Spoken by Joan la Pucelle to Charles, the Bastard of Orleans, Alençon, and Forces in First Part of King Henry the Sixth, Act III. Scene III. Line 19-22.

"Sonnets to Sundry Notes of Music, VI."

As it fell upon a day

In the merry month of May,

Sitting in a pleasant shade

Which a grove of myrtles made,

Beasts did leap, and birds did sing,

Trees did grow, and plants did spring;

Every thing did banish moan,

Save the nightingale alone:

She, poor bird, as all forlorn,

Lean'd her breast up-till a thorn,

And there sung the dolefull'st ditty,

That to hear it was great pity:

'Fie, fie, fie!' now would she cry;

'Tereu, Tereu!' by and by;

That to hear her so complain,

Scarce I could from tears refrain;

For her griefs, so lively shown,

Made me think upon mine own.

Ah! thought I, thou mourn'st in vain,

None takes pity on thy pain:

Senseless trees they cannot hear thee,

Ruthless beasts they will not cheer thee:

King Pandion he is dead,

All thy friends are lapp'd in lead,

All thy fellow birds do sing

Careless of thy sorrowing.

Even so, poor bird, like thee,

None alive will pity me.

Whilst as fickle Fortune smil'd,

Thou and I were both beguil'd.

Every one that flatters thee

Is no friend in misery.

Words are easy, like the wind;

Faithful friends are hard to find:

Every man will be thy friend

Whilst thou hast wherewith to spend;

But if store of crowns be scant,

No man will supply thy want.

If that one be prodigal,

Bountiful they will him call,

And with such-like flattering,

'Pity but he were a king.'

If he be addict to vice,

Quickly him they will entice;

If to women he be bent,

They have him at commandement:

But if Fortune once do frown,

Then farewell his great renown;

They that fawn'd on him before

Use his company no more.

He that is thy friend indeed,

He will help thee in thy need:

If thou sorrow, he will weep;

If thou wake, he cannot sleep:

Thus of every grief in heart

He with thee does bear a part.

These are certain signs to know

Faithful friend from flattering foe.

"O, how this spring of love resembleth / The uncertain glory of an April day, / Which now shows all the beauty of the sun, / And by and by a cloud takes all away." - Shakespeare, The Two Gentlemen of Verona (Act 1, Scene 3)
