affection

Affectation.
There affectation, with a sickly mien,
Shows in her cheek the roses of eighteen;
Practis'd to lisp, and hang the head aside;
Faints into airs, and languishes with pride;
On the rich quilt sinks with becoming woe,
Wrapt in a gown, for sickness, and for show.

POPE: R. of the Lock, Canto iv., Line 31.
Affection.
Why, she would hang on him,
As if increase of appetite had grown
By what it fed on.

SHAKS.: Hamlet, Act i., Sc. 2.
Affection is a coal that must be cool'd,
Else, suffer'd, it will set the heart on fire.
