| JC I.iii.96 | [Cassius to Casca] life, being weary of ... worldly bars, / Never lacks power to dismiss itself |
| MA II.ii.4 | [Don John to Borachio, of Claudio's marriage] Any bar, any cross, any impediment will be medicinable to me |
| MV II.vii.45 | [Morocco to himself] The watery kingdom ... is no bar / To stop the foreign spirits |
| MV III.ii.119 | [Bassanio to all, of Portia's portrait] Here are severed lips / Parted with sugar breath; so sweet a bar / Should sunder such sweet friends |
