Doublet

Famous quotes containing the word doublet:

    My slumber broken and my doublet torn,
    I find the laurel also bears a thorn.

    Dost thou think, though I am caparisoned like a man, I have
    a doublet and hose in my disposition?
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Lord Hamlet, with his doublet all unbraced,
    No hat upon his head, his stockings fouled,
    Ungartered, and down-gyved to his ankle,
    Pale as his shirt, his knees knocking each other,
    And with a look so piteous in purport
    As if he had been loosed out of hell
    To speak of horrors.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
