   • 1814, William Wordsworth, The Excursion

     Yet, in the very centre of the crowd,
     To keep the secret of a poignant scorn,
     Howe'er to airy Demons suitable,
     Of all unsocial courses, is least fit
     For the gross spirit of mankind, — the one
     That soonest fails to please, and quickliest turns
     Into vexation.

   • 1868, Augusta Webster (transl.), The Medea of Euripides, page 13, line 105

     Go, go, pass within, as you quickliest can.
