Scold: Quotations from Shakespearian Quotations

Think you, a little din can daunt mine ears? Have I not in my time heard lions roar? SCOLD, continued. : Have I not heard the sea, puff'd up with winds, Rage like an hungry boar, chafed with sweat? Have I not heard great ordnance in the field, And Heaven's artillery thunder in the skies? Have I not in pitched battles heard Loud 'larums, neighing steeds, and trumpets' clang? And do you tell me of a woman's tongue, That gives not half so great a blow to the ear As will a chesnut in a farmer's fire ?— T. S. i. 2
