Act V Scene 3 of Shakespeare's Coriolanus: V OLUMNIA Say my request's unjust, And spurn me back: but if it be not so, Thou art not honest; and the gods will plague thee, That thou restrain'st from me the duty which To a mother's part belongs.—He turns away: Down, ladies: let us shame him with our knees. To his surname Coriolanus 'longs more pride Than pity to our prayers. Down: an end; This is the last.—So we will home to Rome, And die among our neighbours.—Nay, behold's: This boy, that cannot tell what he would have But kneels and holds up hands for fellowship, Does reason our petition with more strength Than thou hast to deny't.—Come, let us go. · Photo by Gavin Hamilton / Adam Cuerden · Public domain · Source: wikimedia
