Ay, true, you did, but since you saw me not; At twelve o'clock you parted from my house, And now 'tis morning, and new-strucken seven; Seven hours thou stay'd'st from me; why didst thou so?

Why let the strucken Deere go weepe, The Hart vngalled play:

Budaeus records, how that, at Lewis the Twelfth his death, tam subita mutatio, ut qui prius digito coelum attingere videbantur, nunc humi derepente serpere, sideratos esse diceres, they that were erst in heaven, upon a sudden, as if they had been planet-strucken, lay grovelling on the ground; "Concussis cecidere animis, seu frondibus ingens Sylva dolet lapsis" they looked like cropped trees.

A form of participial termination frequently found in Shakespeare, as strucken, &c.

My faither had strucken at it, when the mad animal plunged its horns into the side

I am strucken dumb with wonder, Sure all the Excellence of Earth dwells here.
