     BORACHIO. Seest thou not, I say, what a deformed thief this fashion is? how giddily he turns about all the hot bloods between fourteen and five-and-thirty? sometime fashioning them like Pharaoh's soldiers in the reechy painting; sometime like god Bel's priests in the old church-window; sometime like the shaven Hercules in the smirched worm-eaten tapestry, where his codpiece seems as massy as his club?

   • 1602 : William Shakespeare, Hamlet, act III scene 4

     Let the bloat King tempt you again to bed

     Pinch wanton on your cheek, call you his mouse

     And let him for a pair of reechy kisses,

     Or paddling in your neck with his damned fingers,

     Make you to ravel all this matter out

     That I essentially am not in madness

     But mad in craft.
