Conspiracy

Conspiracies no sooner should be formed
Than executed.
Addison—Cato. Act I. Sc. 2.

O conspiracy,
Sham’st thou to show thy dang’rous brow by night,
When evils are most free?
Julius Cæsar. Act II. Sc. 1. L. 76.

Take no care
Who chafes, who frets; and where conspirers are:
Macbeth shall never vanquish’d be.
Macbeth. Act IV. Sc. 1. L. 89.

Thou dost conspire against thy friend, Iago,
If thou but think’st him wrong’d and mak’st his ear
A stranger to thy thoughts.
Othello. Act III. Sc. 3. L. 142.

Open-eye conspiracy
His time doth take.
Tempest. Act II. Sc. 1. Song. L. 301.
