"Lawyer. Most literated judges, please your lordships
So to connive your judgments to the view
Of this debauched and diversivolent woman,
Who such a black concatenation
Of mischief hath effected, that to extrip
The memory of't must be the consummation
Of her and her projections--
Vittoria. What's all this--?
Lawyer. Hold your peace.
Exorbitant sins must have exulceration."
- John Webster, The White Devil

"Yo[n] diversivolent lawyer, mark him:
"knaves turn informers, as maggots turn to
flies; you may catch gudgeons with either."
- ibidem
