莎士比亞用relish約4-5種意思
其中最有名的是 動詞當 sing/warble

The Rape of Lucrece
'You mocking birds,' quoth she, 'your tunes entomb Within your ... A woeful hostess brooks not merry guests: Relish your nimble notes to pleasing ears;Distress likes dumps when time is kept with tears". The by play of the musicians in Romeo and Juliet not only ...

Two Gentlemen of Verona

SPEED Marry, by these special marks: first, you have
learned, like Sir Proteus, to wreathe your arms,
like a malecontent; to relish a love-song, like a
robin-redbreast; to walk alone, like one that had
the pestilence; to sigh, like a school-boy that had
lost his A B C; to weep, like a young wench that had
buried her grandam; to fast, like one that takes
diet; to watch like one that fears robbing; to
speak puling, like a beggar at Hallowmas. You were
wont, when you laughed, to crow like a cock; when you
walked, to walk like one of the lions; when you
fasted, it was presently after dinner; when you
looked sadly, it was for want of money: and now you
are metamorphosed with a mistress, that, when I look
on you, I can hardly think you my master.
