best men are moulded out of faults

Isabel,
Sweet Isabel, do yet but kneel by me;
Hold up your hands, say nothing; I'll speak all.
They say, best men are moulded out of faults;
And, for the most, become much more the better
For being a little bad: so may my husband.
O Isabel, will you not lend a knee?


Mariana to Isabel in Measure for Measure by William Shakespeare. Act 5, Sc. 1
