And also I shall to reueng former hurtis,
Hold their noses to grinstone, and syt on theyr skurtis.
--
And also I shall to revenge former hurts, Hold their noses to grindstone, and sit on their skirts.

Part I, chapter 5.John Heywood
Hold their noses to the grindstone.
Thomas Middleton
And hold one another's noses to the grindstone hard.

There is nothynge that more dyspleaseth God,
Than from theyr children to spare the rod.John Skelton
It is [a politician's] business to get and hold his job at all costs. If he can hold it by lying, he will hold it by lying; if lying peters out, he will try to hold it by embracing new truths. His ear is ever close to the ground.
H. L. Mencken
The physical power to get the money does not seem to me a test of the right to tax. Might does not make right even in taxation. To hold that what the use of official authority may get the state may keep, and that if it cannot get hold of a nonresident stockholder it may hold the company as hostage for him, is strange constitutional doctrine to me.
