    engross his sorrows, that, by making them mine own, I may more
    easily discuss them; for in mine own reason, and within myself, I
    can command that which I cannot entreat without myself, and
    within the circle of another.

and woe;
The frownes of fortune, come they never so unkinde, cannot the
same overthrowe.
