No is a surly, honest fellow—speaks his mind rough and round at once. But is a sneaking, evasive, half-bred, exceptious sort of conjunction, which comes to pull away the cup just when it is at your lips.
—Sir Walter Scott
A deadly viper once bit a hole snipe's hide; But 'twas the viper, not the snipe, that died.
