   Wise behest, those creeping flames by reason to subdue,
   Before their rage grew to so great unrest. Fairy Queen.

   Repose, sweet gold, for their unrest,
   That have their alms out of the empress’ chest. William Shakespeare.

   Dismay’d confusion all possess’d;
   Th’ afflicted troop, hearing their plot descry’d:
   Then runs amaz’d distress, with sad unrest,
   To this, to that; to fly, to stand, to hide. Daniel.

   Silence, in truth, would speak my sorrows best;
   For deepest wounds, can least their feelings tell;
   Yet, let me borrow from mine own unrest,
   But time to bid him, whom I lov’d, farewell. Henry Wotton.

   Up they rose,
   As from unrest; and each the other viewing,
   Soon found their eyes how open’d, and their minds
   How darken’d! John Milton, Par. Lost, b. ix.
