Macbeth
- Who dares receive it other,
As we shall make our griefs and clamor roar
Upon his death?†p. 45.3 *clamor = loud noise and/or persistent demands
- The night has been unruly: where we lay,
Our chimneys were blown down: and, as they say,
Lamentings heard i' the air, strange screams of death;
And prophesying, with accents terrible,
Of dire combustion and confused events,
New hatched to the woeful time: the obscure bird
Clamoured the live-long night; some say the earth
Was feverous, and did shake.†p. 65.6clamoured = made loud noise and/or persistent demands
- Make all our trumpets speak; give them all breath,
Those clamorous harbingers of blood and death.†p. 181.7
