The passage appears inCoriolanus (1607-1608) in a speech by Coriolanus to his mother Volumnia:"My mother, you wot [know] well/My hazards still have been your solace, and/Believe't not lightly—though I go alone,/Like to alonely dragon, that his fen/Makes fear'd and talk'd of more than seen—your son/Will or exceed the common or be caught/With cautelous [crafty] baits and practice.” Lonely here, of course, has the sense "solitary.” The dragon does not feel dejected,or if he does,he does not seem to know how to reach out to others effectively.牛津英语词典 的四位编纂者之一亨利·布莱德雷说： “人们经常忽视这样一个现实，但它并非不重要，那就是对某种语言词汇的每一次添加都首先是由于某一个人的行为（尽管不一定是自愿的或有意识的行为）”。许多时候，这一个人可能是个作者，因为一个词有记载的首次使用往往出自一位作者的作品。当然，正如布莱德雷所提醒人们的，这是首次有记载的 的例子； 某个作者可能是从别处学到这个词或这个意思，或是这个词或意思在更早的作品中已经出现，只是未被人们发现。不管怎样，当我们知道lonely 这个词的有记载的首次使用出现在莎士比亚的作品中时，这些都不大能减轻我们的沮丧心情。 在卡里奥拉纳斯 （1607-1608年）中， 卡里奥拉纳斯对他母亲弗罗姆尼娅讲的一段话中有这样的文字：“我的母亲，你清楚地知道／我的冒险一直是你的安慰，而且／不要轻信——尽管我要只身前往，／就象去面对一条孤单的 龙，他的沼泽／令人谈而色变，尽管并未亲见——你的儿子／决意或是胜过凡人或是被狡猾的圈套和手段擒捉”。 Lonely 在这里的意思当然是“孤单的”。 龙不会感到沮丧，即便它感到沮丧，他也不太可能知道如何让别人体会到它的感情〔unbidden〕Not invited, asked, or requested; unasked:自愿的：未被邀请的，未提出的或未要求过的：〔free〕Given, made, or done of one's own accord; voluntary or spontaneous:不受羁束的：主动地给予、制作或做的；自愿或自发的：〔commonwealth〕Used to refer to a self-governing, autonomous political unit voluntarily associated with the United States, namely, Puerto Rico and the Northern Mariana Islands.和美国联盟的自治区：用于指自管、自治的政治单位，与美国自愿联合，例如波多黎各和北马里亚纳群岛〔voluntary〕Arising from or acting on one's own free will.自愿的：由某人的自由意愿决定或依某人自由意愿行事的〔acceptant〕Accepting willingly.自愿接受的，愿意接受的〔voluntary〕These adjectives mean being or resulting from one's own free will.这些形容词的意思是作为或由某人自愿导致的。〔voluntary〕a voluntary conveyance of property.自愿的财产让与〔exile〕Self-imposed absence from one's country.自我流放：自愿的离开本国〔volunteer〕volunteered their services; volunteer to give blood.志愿提供他们的服务；自愿献血〔voluntary〕"Ignorance, when it is voluntary, is criminal" (Samuel Johnson).“当自愿的时候愚昧就是犯罪” （塞缪尔·约翰逊）。〔forced〕Imposed by force; involuntary:强迫的：被强迫的；不自愿的：〔inside〕felt good on the inside about volunteering to help.对自愿帮忙心里觉得很快乐〔exile〕One who lives away from one's native country, whether because of expulsion or voluntary absence.离乡者：被驱逐或因为自愿而居住在自己的祖国之外〔Ripken〕American baseball player.
