From William Shakespeare’s Henry VI, part 1 (II: 3):
COUNTESS OF AUVERGNE:
But now the substance shall endure the like,
And I will chain these legs and arms of thine,
That hast by tyranny these many years
Wasted our country, slain our citizens
And sent our sons and husbands captivate.captivate: past participle of captured, made prisoner
