By Scott Granneman / 16 January 2007 16 January 2007 / language & literature, word of the day / language, literature, shakespeare

From William Shakespeare’s Henry VI, part 1 (IV: 6):

TALBOT:

If I to-day die not with Frenchmen’s rage,
To-morrow I shall die with mickle age:

mickle: Great.

(If I don’t die today in battle, I’ll die tomorrow from old age.)
