Okay, how about this, then?
From Hamlet, Act II, Scene 1:
Polonius:
Faith, no; as you may season it in the charge.
You must not put another scandal on him,
As compared to /Athyra/, Chapter 11, page 129 (omnibus):
"Yes," said the Master, "You may season the cheese. You must not put
another Scallion on it."
Is that a groan, I hear?
