Poor-John (Hake)

The Tempest, II, 2:
TRINCULO: ... What have we here? a man or a fish? dead or alive? A fish: he smells like a fish; a very ancient and fish- like smell; a kind of not of the newest Poor- John. A strange fish!

Romeo and Juliet, I, 1:
GREGORY: 'Tis well thou art not fish; if thou hadst, thou hadst been poor John. Draw thy tool! here comes two of the house of the Montagues.

Juice

The Merry Wives of Windsor, V, 5:
MISTRESS QUICKLY: About, about; Search Windsor Castle, elves, within and out: Strew good luck, ouphes, on every sacred room: That it may stand till the perpetual doom, In state as wholesome as in state 'tis fit, Worthy the owner, and the owner it. The several chairs of order look you scour With juice of balm and every precious flower.

Antony and Cleopatra, V, 2:
CLEOPATRA: Give me my robe, put on my crown; I have Immortal longings in me: now no more The juice of Egypt's grape shall moist this lip.
