From The White Devil by John Webster

Noble my lord, most fortunately welcome; [The conspirators here embrace. You have our vows, seal'd with the sacrament, To second your attempts. (Gas: And all things ready; He could not have invented his own ruin with more propriety.) You would not take my way. (Fran: 'Tis better order'd.) T' have poison'd his prayer-book, or a pair of beads, The pummel of his saddle, his looking-glass, Or th' handle of his racket,--O, that, that! That while he had been bandying at tennis, He might have sworn himself to hell, and strook His soul into the hazard! Oh, my lord, I would have our plot be ingenious, And have it hereafter recorded for example, Rather than borrow example.
