teach (n.)
teach (v.)
If it were done when 't is done, then 't were well
It were done quickly: if the assassination
Could trammel up the consequence, and catch
With his surcease success; that but this blow
Might be the be-all and the end-all here,
But here, upon this bank and shoal of time,
We 'ld jump the life to come. But in these cases
We still have judgment here; that we but teach
Bloody instructions, which being taught, return
To plague the inventor: this even-handed justice
Commends the ingredients of our poison'd chalice
To our own lips.
And gladly wolde he lerne, and gladly teche.
Teach him how to live,
And, oh still harder lesson! how to die.
The tyrant custom, most grave senators,
Hath made the flinty and steel couch of war
My thrice-driven bed of down.
Most wretched men
Are cradled into poetry by wrong:
They learn in suffering what they teach in song.
Teach me to feel another's woe,
To hide the fault I see;
That mercy I to others show,
That mercy show to me.
He who should teach men to die would at the same time teach them to live.
He who should teach men to die would at the same time teach them to live.
Thought is deeper than all speech,
Feeling deeper than all thought;
Souls to souls can never teach
What unto themselves was taught.
Damn with faint praise, assent with civil leer,
And without sneering teach the rest to sneer;
Willing to wound, and yet afraid to strike,
Just hint a fault, and hesitate dislike.
Delightful task! to rear the tender thought,
To teach the young idea how to shoot.
Thou slave, thou wretch, thou coward!
Thou little valiant, great in villany!
Thou ever strong upon the stronger side!
Thou Fortune's champion that dost never fight
But when her humorous ladyship is by
To teach thee safety.
So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.
