Grocott & Ward, comps. Grocott’s Familiar Quotations, 6th ed. 189-?.

Liquors

Though I look old, yet am I strong and lusty,
For in my youth I never did apply
Hot and rebellious liquors in my blood;
Nor did not with unbashful forehead woo
The means of weakness and debility;
Therefore my age is as a lusty winter,
Frosty, but kindly.
Shakespeare.—As You Like It, Act II. Scene 3. (Adam to Orlando.)
