Careful Words

incensed (adj.)

  Virtue is like precious odours,—most fragrant when they are incensed or crushed.

William Shakespeare (1564-1616): Of Adversity.

Unterrify'd, and like a comet burn'd

That fires the length of Ophiuchus huge

In th' arctic sky, and from his horrid hair

Shakes pestilence and war.
