Shakespeare Words
Shakespearean, not stirred.
If Shakespeare wrote it, we've Shmooped it.
Arouse
Invented in Henry IV Part 2“ | The gaudy, blabbing and remorseful day | |
Is crept into the bosom of the sea; | ||
And now loud-howling wolves arouse the jades | ||
That drag the tragic melancholy night; | ||
Who, with their drowsy, slow and flagging wings, | ||
Clip dead men's graves and from their misty jaws | ” |
Get your mind out of the gutter. This word simply meant to awaken when Shakespeare first wrote it. |
