gall
«And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say, a place of a skull, / They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted thereof, he would not drink.»
«And I said, My strength and my hope is perished from the LORD: / Remembering mine affliction and my misery, the wormwood and the gall.»
«For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, and of the fields of Gomorrah: their grapes are grapes of gall, their clusters are bitter: / Their wine is the poison of dragons, and the cruel venom of asps.»
«It is drawn, and cometh out of the body; yea, the glittering sword cometh out of his gall: terrors are upon him.»
«His archers compass me round about, he cleaveth my reins asunder, and doth not spare; he poureth out my gall upon the ground.»
«Is not disease the rule of existence? There is not a lily pad floating on the river but has been riddled by insects. Almost every shrub and tree has its gall, oftentimes esteemed its chief ornament and hardly to be distinguished from the fruit. If misery loves company, misery has company enough. Now, at midsummer, find me a perfect leaf or fruit.»
