- In the first days
Of my distracting grief, I found myself
As women wish to be who love their lords.- Act i, scene 1.
- I'll woo her as the lion wooes his brides.
- Act i, scene 1.
- My name is Norval; on the Grampian hills
My father feeds his flocks; a frugal swain,
Whose constant cares were to increase his store,
And keep his only son, myself, at home.- Act ii, scene 1.
- A rude and boisterous captain of the sea.
- Act iv, scene 1.
- Like Douglas conquer, or like Douglas die.
- Act v, scene 1.
