172 NATURAL HISTORY OF SHAKESPEARE . 
Don Pedro. What a pretty thing man is, when he 
goes in his doublet and hose, and leaves off his wit! 
Claud. He is then a giant to an ape : but then is 
an ape a doctor to such a man. 
Much Ado about Nothing, Act ii. Scene i ; 
Act v. Scene I. 
Jaques. Well then, if ever I thank any man I’ll 
thank you : but that they call compliments is like the 
encounter of two dog-apes ; 
Rosalind. . . . more new-fangled than an ape; 
As You Like It, Act ii. Scene 5 ; 
Act iv. Scene 1. 
Lady. What is it carries you away ? 
Hotspur. Why, my horse, my love, my horse. 
Lady. Out, you mad-headed ape ! 
King Henry IV., Part I. Act ii. Scene 3. 
York . Uncle, my brother mocks both you and me ; 
Because that I am little, like an ape, 
He thinks that you should bear me on your shoulders. 
King Richard III., Act iii. Scene 1. 
Antony. You show’d your teeth like apes, 
Julius Clsar, Act v. Scene 1. 
Marcius. You souls of geese 
That be.ar the shapes of men, how have you run 
From slaves that apes would beat! 
Coriolanus, Act i. Scene 4. 
Hamlet. . . . and, like the famous ape, 
To try conclusions, in the basket creep, 
And break your own neck down.
