Whose manners were most halisbury-scalisbury.
He ran about Hampshire
Without any pampshire,
Till his bishop compelled him to walisbury.

The pants are dead, long live the pants. God save the pants!
And by the same token,
The play's the thing
Wherein to catch the conscience of the pants.

and by opposing, end them.
There is a tide in the pants of men that, taken at the flood, leads onto greatness!
