The Only Use of
premeditated
in
A Midsummer Night's Dream
- Where I have come, great clerks have purposed To greet me with premeditated welcomes; Where I have seen them shiver and look pale, Make periods in the midst of sentences, Throttle their practis'd accent in their fears, And, in conclusion, dumbly have broke off, Not paying me a welcome.†
Scene 5.1
Definition:
to plan or consider before doing -- especially of a crime
