turncoat but it is certain I am loved of all women only you accepted and I would I could find in my heart but I had not a heart heart for truly I love none a dear happiness to women they would else have been troubled with a pernicious suitor I thank God and my cold blood that I am of your humor for that I had rather hear my dog bark at a crow than a man swear he loves me God keep your ladyship

detain us longer I dare swear she's no hypocrite but praise from the heart thank you not as many words but thank you if it please your grace you don't know your arm Leonardo we go together it's that not the daughter of senior Leonardo I noted her not but I looked on her she not a modest young lady would you have to would you have me answer after my custom as a professed tolerance to their sex no I pray these speak in sober judgment only this commendation can I afford her that were she other than she is she were unhandsome and being no other than as she is I do not like I'll think it's diamond sports I pray thee tell me truly how that likes her would you buy her that you inquire after her in the world by such a tool yay in a case to put it into in my eye she is the sweetest lady and I left upon I see yet without spectacles and I see no such matter there's her cousin and she went up possessed with a fury exceeds her as much in beauty as the first of May just the last of December but I hope you have no intent of turning husband to have you I would scarce trust myself though I had sworn the contrary if hero would be my wife these it come to this I'm faith that's not the world that one man shall I never meet a bachelor of 30 again go to oh look the princess come to seek you oh no what secrets have held you here that you follow not to Leonardo I would your grace were constrained

who with hero Leonardo's daughter this was so so we're at it amen if you love her lady is very well worthy you speak this to fetch me and my lord by my truth I speak my thoughts in faith my lord I spoke mine and by my two fates and trots I spoke mine that I love her I feel that she is worthy I know that I neither feel how she should be worthy nor know how she is loved is the opinion that fire cannot melt out of me I will die in it at the stake that was ever the opposite heritage in despite a beauty yet I shall see thief air I die look pale with love no no no with hunger with sickness with anger my lord but not with love in time the savage bull does bear the yoke well if ever the sensible Benedict do pluck off the bull's horns and stick them in my forehead and then my grave be early digged with the inscription here lies Benedict the married man well in the meantime good to send your Benedict repair feet Leonardo's commend me to her and tell her I shall not fail her at supper for she had made great preparation here goes Benedict the unmarried man my leash your highness now may do me good my love is fine to teach teach it but how no daughter but hero and she's her only heir does that affect her my lord when you went onward on this ended action I looked upon her with a soldier's eye that liked but had a rougher task at hand than to drive liking to the name of love but now now I'm returned and all those thoughts come thronging soft and delicate desires all prompting me how fair young hero is saying I liked her I went to wars now will be like a lover presently and tire the hero with a book of words if I'll just love good hero then cherish it and I will break with her and with her mother and she shall be fine what's not to this end that thou be against a trick so fine a tale well lest my liking me too sudden team I would have solved it with a longer treatise what need the bridge more winding than the stream the straightest path is a necessity look Claudio I shall assume thigh part in some disguise and tells fair hero I'm Claudio and in her bosom I shall unclass my heart and take her hearing prisoner with the force and strong encounter of my amorous tale then afterward I shall break with her and she shall be fine come in practice let it put it up presently that servant that attends you that balthazar have you provided the music oh he's been very busy about it but sister I can tell you some strange news that you have not yet drunk is it good well it shows well outwardly the Prince and young Claudio I overheard walking in our orchard the Prince discovered of Claudio that he loved my niece your daughter and meant to announce it this night in a dance and if he found her accordant to make wedding preparations with you well well but we will hold this is a dream until it appear itself I will acquaint my daughter with though that she be better prepared for an answer if for adventure good year my lord why are you so thus out of measure sad your brother has recently taken you into his grace though of course it would be impossible for you to take root but by the fair weather that you make yourself and I'd rather be a canker at a hedge than a rose in his grace can't hide what I am I sleep when I am drowsy I eat when I have stomach and I am sad when I have cause and I should be sad with these fair and noble folk whose love and fake smiles are given only in exchange for such suffocating dignity as no person should be expected of would that I could show these people for what they are come my lord can you not use your dissatisfaction no one else is going to use it so I will use it all always not a draw who comes here what news I came yonder from a great supper the prince your brother is royally entertained by Leonata and I can give you intelligence of an intended marriage well that serve any model to build mr. fun what fool is it that betrays himself on quietness Mary it's your brother's right hand the most exquisite Claudio even hey and who and who what way looks he Mary on hero the daughter in air of Leonata so very forward March chick I overheard a degree to bond that the prince should woo hero for himself and having obtained her give her to count Claudio you know what this might serve as some model to build mischief on that young upstart could use a bit overthrow so we can cross him anyway I bless ourselves everywhere you're sure about this and will assist me to the death my lord well then let us head to the banquet as they be cheerful without me I wait upon your lordship partly that gentleman looks I never can see him but I'm heartburned an hour after he is a very melancholy disposition he were an excellent man that were made just in the midway between him and Benedict the one is too like an image and says nothing the other too like my lady's youngest son evermore tattling then take half of senior Benedict's tongue and put that in Don John's mouth and half of Don John's sour tongue on senior Benedict's face with a good leg and a good foot sweet aunt and money enough in his purse why such a man would win any woman in the world if he could get her goodwill by my trough niece I shall never get the husband if I'll be so shrewd if I don't lord I could not endure a husband with a beard on his face I had rather lie with a hedgehog you may light upon a husband that has no beer what should I do with him dress him in school clothes and set him learning his numbers he that had the beard is more than a youth and he that have no beard is less than a man and he that is more than a youth is not for me and he that is less than a man I am not for him by your mother yes it is my cousin's duty to make curtsy and say mother as it please you but for all that cousin let him be a handsome fellow or else make another curtsy and say mother as it please me well I do hope to see you fit it with the husband some days not till God make men of some other metal than earth would it not grieve a woman to be over mastered with a piece of valiant dust to make an account of her life to a clod of wayward mud no aunt all none Adam's sons are my brethren and surely I hold it a sin to match in my kindred daughter remember what I told you if the prince do some this at you in this kind you know your answer the fault will be in the music cousin if you be not wooed in good time if the prince be too important tell him there is measure in everything and so dance out the answer for hear me hero wooing wedding and repenting is as a Scotch dig a measure and the syncopates the first suit is hot and hasty as Scotch jig and full as fantastical the wedding manly modest as a measure and then comes repentance and with his bad legs falls into the syncopates faster and until he sinks into his grave cousin you apprehend passing truthly I have a good eye aunt I can see a barn by daylight sister make room the revelers approach will you walk about with your friend so you walk softly and look sweetly and say nothing and I am yours for a walk especially when I walk away I was me in your company I may say so when I please and when he's you to say so when I like your favor for God defend the loop should be like the case my visor is like the church people within Liza's which would be loved why then your advisor should be cross but how now how could a man in love ever be cross I know you well enough you are seeing your dawn John oh I know you by your shoulder sullen slouch in faith I counterfeit you could not do the man so well unless you were he look here's his cold hand all up and down you are there I'm not do you think that I do not recognize you by the shortness of your reply God's grace send me a partner who can dance and keep him out of my face once the dance is over no more words the priest would answer prayers will you not tell me who told you so no you shall pardon me nor will you not tell me who you are not now that I was disdainful and that I parrot all my wit from others mouths well this was senior benedict that said so who is he I'm sure you know him well enough not I'd leave me did he never make you laugh who is he why he is the prince's jester a very dull fool his only gift is in devising impossible slanders none but libertines delight in him and the commendation is not in his wit but in his villainy for he both pleases men and angers them and then they laugh both with him and at him I'm sure he's about when I know the gentleman lady I'll tell him what you say do do he'll but break a comparison or two on me which per adventure not being marked or laughed at strikes him into melancholy and then there's a partridge wing saved for the poor fool will eat no supper that night we must follow the leaders in every good day nay if they lead to any ill I'll leave them at the next turning the brother is enamored on hero he's left to break with her mother leonata about it the women follow it looks like just one visor remains and that is claudio I know him by his bearing uh sir are you not good senior benedict you know me well for I am he well listen you're very near my brother in his love and he is an armored on hero I bid you dissuade him from her she is no equal for his birth you could play the part of an honest man in it how no you he loves her I heard him swear it so did I too and he swore he would marry her tonight come let's go to the banquet I'm hungry starving thus enter I in name of benedict I hear these ill-lose with the ears of claudio to a certain so prince swooze for himself friendship is constant and all other things saved in the office in affairs of love therefore let all hearts and love use their own tongues let every eye negotiate for itself and trust no agent very well therefore hero can claudio hey the same will you come with me with her even to yawn willow tree that you may weave together oh the poor soldier sags well the prince got the hero I wish him joy of her oh that's said like an honest farmer so they sell cows I pray you leave me what did you think the prince would have served you thus I mean you now you strike like the blind man the boy stole your meat you'll beat the messenger he will not be I'll leave you ass poor hurt cat now only lick his wounds what's that my lady Beatrice should know me and not know me the prince is fool ha hey it may be I go into that title because I am married yay but so I'm asked to do myself wrong I am not thus reputed it is the base though bitter disposition of Beatrice that puts the world into her person and thus gives me out well I'll be revenged as I may oh now senior where's the count have you seen him I found him here as melancholy is a be in winter I told him and I think I told him true that you had got the goodwill of this young lady and then I bid him accompany me to yawn willow tree either to be whipped or to weep to be whipped what's his fault or the flat transgression of a schoolboy who being overjoyed at finding a bird's nest shows you this companion and has it stolen away from him I will but teach the bird how to sing then restore it to the owner then bird and groom owe you thanks and all in all as well you know the lady Beatrice has quarrel with you she said the gentleman that danced with her told her she is much wrong by you ah she misused me past the endurance of a stone my very visor began to assume life and scald with her she told me not thinking I had been myself that I was the prince's fool I mean just hurling jest upon jest imputing me so impossibly that I stood like a man at a mark with a whole army firing at me if her breath was terrible as her terminations there were no living near her she would infect to the north star I would not marry her if she were endowed with all that Adam had left him before he transgressed come talk not of her all this quiet horror and perturbation follows her and here she comes no no my lord will you command me any service now to the world's end I will go on the slightest errand now to the antipodes you can devise to send me on I will go to the furthest inch of Asia now to fetch you a tooth picker you have no employment for me none but desire your good company oh lord here's a dish I love not well I will not feast on sour tongue oh lady Beatrice you have lost the heart of senor benedic indeed my lord he lent it me a while and I gave him use for it a double heart for his single one Mary once before he wanted of me with false dice therefore your grace may well say I have lost it you put him down lady you put him down better I him than him me my lord I have brought count Claudio whom you sent me to seek where for now count why are you sad not sad my lord no sick neither my lord the count is neither sad nor sick nor merry nor well but civil count civil as green grass and green are still with jealousy in faith lady I think you're blazing to be true there'll be sworn if it be so his conceit is false come Claudio I have wooed in thy name and the rare hero is one I have broke with her mother and her good will is obtained name the day of marriage in god give me joy with me my daughter and with her my fortress is grace have to make a match and I'll say amen to it speak count it is your cue oh um uh silence is the perfectest herald of joy I were but little happy if I could say how much lady as you are mine I am yours I give away myself for you and dot upon the exchange speak cousin or if you cannot stop his mouth with a kiss and let not him speak neither in faith lady you have a merry heart indeed my lord I think it the poor fool it keeps on the windy side of care oh my cousin tells him in his ear that he is in her heart and so she does cousin good lord for alliance thus all in the world begin to beam whilst I am sunburnt I may sit in a corner and cry high hope for a husband oh lady Beatrice I shall get you one I had rather have one of your father's getting half your grace narrow brother like you your father made excellent husbands if a maid could come by them will you have me lady I know my lord but not unless I may have another for working days your grace is too costly to wear every day uh but I beseech your grace pardon me I was born to speak all mirth and no matter your silence most offends me and to be merry best becomes you yes would you go look to those things I told you how I cry you mercy aunt by your grace is pardoned by my truth a pleasant spirited lady there is very little of the melancholy element in her my lord she is never sad though she can't bear to hear tell of a husband oh by no means she mocks her out of suit she would make an excellent wife for a benedict oh lord if they were married but a week they would talk each other mad count Claudio when mean you to go to church tomorrow my lord time goes on crutches till love have all his rights not till monday my son hence just seven night brief a time for all things answer in my mind ah you shake your head it's so long a breathing Claudio but I warned thee time will not go deli by us for I will in the interim undertake one of Hercules's labors which is to bring lady Beatrice and send your benedict into a mountain of affection I would faint have it a match if you three would just be some assistance I am for you my lord even though it cost me 10 nights watching and I my lord and you gentle hero I won't you any modest office my lord to help my cousin too a good husband and benedict is not the unhopefulest husband this I know well I shall teach you how to humor your cousin so that she fall in love with benedict and with your two helps we will so practice on benedict so that he fall in love with Beatrice if we can do this cupid's glory shall be ours ha ha come let me tell you my drift it is so the good count Claudio shall marry the lady hero yay my lord but I can cross it any bar any cross any impediment should be provisional to me how would you cross this marriage not honestly my lord but so covertly that no dishonesty shall appear in me show me how I think I told your lordship a year since how much I am in favor with Ursula the shy worded kitchen maid to leonata as I remember I can at any unseasonable instant of the night appoint her to look out at her lady's chamber window what life is there in that to be the death of a marriage well the poison in that lies in you to temper go you to the prince your brother it's better not to tell him he wronged his honor in marrying the renowned Claudio whose estimation do you mightily hold up to a contaminated stale such as hero stale what proof do I make of that proof enough to misuse the prince to vex Claudio to undo hero and kill leonata look you for any other issue no despite them all endeavor anything go then find me a meat hour to draw Don Pedro and count Claudio alone tell them that you know hero loves me intend to kind of zeal both to the prince and Claudio both in love of your brother's honor who have made this match and for his friend's reputation who is thus like to be cussed with the semblance of a maid that you have discovered thus they'll scarcely believe this without trial so offer them instances such as to see me at her lady's chamber window and hear me call Ursula hero for in the meantime I will so fashion the matter that hero will be absent bring them to see this the very night before the intended wedding their faiths shall fall I will put that into practice be cunning in the working of this night be as a thousand ducats I'll go earn the day of their marriage I do much wonder that that one man seeing how much another man is a fool when he dedicates his behaviors to love will after having laughed at such shallow follies and others become the argument of his own scorn by falling in love and such a man is Claudio we may I be so converted and see with these eyes I do not think so I don't know I may not be sworn but love may transform me to an oyster but till he had made an oyster of me he shall never make me such a fool one woman is winsome yet I am well another is wise yet I am well no there is virtuous yet I am well but till all grace is being one woman one woman shall not come in my grace you're rich shall she be that's certain wise are all none virtuous or I'll never cheapen her cute or I'll never look on her mild or come not near me noble of good discourse an excellent musician and her hair shall be of what color it please god ah the prince and monsieur amour I must hide me behind the column um shall we hear this music yay my good lord see you were benedict have hit himself oh very well my lord come balthazar play us a song you want to hear me keep butchering this oh please praise the place a song and let me who know more okay tell you what if this doesn't get you out of your romantic mood nothing will come on let's hear it hey no more ladies sigh no more men were deceivers ever one foot on land and one on shore to uh one thing constant never it's a great song uh and uh sigh no more and let them go and uh light and awney uh couldn't bring all your sounds of woes and hey nonny nonny wow what a great song and he had been a dog and should have held thus they would have hanged him now hey mary balthazar i pray he get us some excellent music for tomorrow night excellent music okay i'll see what i can do see that you do so farewell come hither leonata was it you that told me of yesterday that uh your niece beatrice was in love with senior benedict oh hi hi stuck on stuck on the trap is set i did never think that lady would have loved any man uh no nor i neither but how wonderful that she should so doad on senior benedict whom she happened all outward behavior seemed ever too abhor is it possible sit to the wind in this corner by my trove i cannot tell what to think of it except for that she loves him with an enraged affection perhaps she does but counterfeit oh faith like enough oh god counterfeit uh there was never counterfeit of a passion so close to the life of passion as she shows it huh i what effects of passion shows she bait the hook well this official bite what affects my lord uh she will sit you she told you how my lord uh she did indeed i pray that you were amazing i would have sought her spirit invincible against all assaults of affection i would have sworn it had especially against benedict she had hit the snare pull it tight has she made her affection known to send you a benedict no and she swears she never will that is her torment ah tis true indeed so your daughter says shall i says she that have so oft encountered him with scorn right to him that i love him as so she says when she's beginning to write him and with sheet after sheet you cannot help but find Beatrice and benedict between her sheets oh how she tore the letters a thousand halfpence and railed at herself that she should be so immodest as to write to someone she knew would flout her i measure his spirit by my own for if he were to write me i would flout him yay though i love him i should and down upon her knees she falls weeps oh sweet benedict god give me patience um my daughter says so it is true this this Beatrice is an excellent sweet lady and virtuous and exceeding wise saying everything but in loving benedict i would that she had bestowed this upon me i would have daft all other respects and made her half my own hero thinks surely she will die for she says she will die if he love her not and she will die ere she make her love known and she will die rather than bait one breath of her accustomed crossness will you walk with me my lord's dinner is ready ah yes well the rest people hear of it by your daughter let it rest the while i love benedict well but i could wish that he so examine himself to see how he is so unworthy such a wonderful lady he do not doad on her upon this i will never trust my expectation look at the same netcast for her and that's your daughter and her gentlewoman must carry the sport will be when they hold one an opinion of another's dotage and no such matter that's the scene that i would see cool let us send her out to fetch him in for dinner this can be no trick the conference was sadly born they the truth of this from hero love me why it must be recorded i hear how i'm censured they say i will bear myself proudly if i perceive the love come from her they say too that she will rather die than show any sign of affection i'd never think to marry i must not seem proud happy are they they could hear their detractions and put them to mending they say the lady is lovely just true i can bury them witness and virtuous to so i cannot prove it and wise but for loving me and i will be horribly in love with her i may chance to have some odd jabs and mocks of wit broken on me because i've railed so long against marriage but definitely at the appetite altar shall quips and sentences and these paper bullets of the brain aw man from the truth of his innards no the world must be peopled well here she comes by this day she is a fine lady and i do spy some mocks of love in her against my will i am sent to bid you come into dinner lady beatrice i thank you for your pains i took no more pains for the thanks than you take pains to thank me if it had been painful i would not have come oh you took a pleasure then in the message just so much as you may take upon a knife's point have you no stomachs in your ha ha ha against my will i'm bid to send you come into dinner there's a double meaning in that if i do not take pity on her i'm a villain and if i do not love her a coward i'll go right to her sonnet run to the parlor where shall thou find my cousin Beatrice from posing with the prince in claudio whisper in her ear and tell her that i am margaret walk in the orchard and our whole discourses of her say that thou overheardst us and bitters steal into the shaded brush to hear our purpose pretty pretty well i will do my best with that one i don't know if that'll work but she asked for it now dearest on when Beatrice doth come as we do traces Ali up and down our talk must only be of benedict when i do name him let it be thy part to praise him more than ever a man did merit my talk to thee must be how benedict is sick in love with Beatrice oh now soft for look where Beatrice like a gray hound runs close by the ground to hear our conference the pleasantest angling is to see the fish cut with her silver fin the silver stream and greedily devour the treacherous bait come go we near her that her ear loose nothing no truly margaret she is too disdainful her spirits are as coy and wild as harpies on the rock but are you sure that benedict loves Beatrice so entirely so says the prince in my new truth lord and did they bid you tell her of it dear oh they didn't treat me to a quinter of it but i persuaded them that if they love Beatrice you never let benedict know of it why for did you so doth not the gentleman deserve so full and fortunate to bed as ever our Beatrice did lie upon oh god of love i know he doth deserve as much as may be yielded to a man but nature never framed a woman's heart a prouder stuff than that of Beatrice disdain in scorn rides sparkling in her eye must price whatever they look upon in her way uh values itself so highly that all else matters seem weak she cannot love she is so self-endeared it is true and i suppose it's best then that he not know of her love lest she makes sport of it why you speak truth i have never yet saw a man how wise how noble young how rarely featured but she would spell him backward be he tall by a lance ill-headed be he low a mole near the ground is speaking why a vein blown with all winds if silent while block meet with none so she turns every man the wrong side out it is true and such carving is not commendable but who dares tell her so if i were to speak she would mock me into air so let benedict like covered fire consume away in sighs waste inwardly so much without true judgment as to refuse so rare and excellent a man as senor benedict no but rather i will go to benedict and counsel him to fight against his passion why for would you so do your cousin such a wrong for surely she cannot be so much without good judgment that she would refuse a man like senor benedict me how he is the only man of italy always except for my dear claudio you'll have to forgive me for speaking my mind niece but for strength valor body and a total sexiness there is no man in italy that is greater than senor benedict indeed he hath an excellent good name his excellence did earn it there he had it but when are you to be married dear why every day tomorrow come go in and i'll show these some attires and have thy counsel on which is the best to furnish me in tomorrow weren't you i so it looks some keepers catch with arrows and some with hooks this be true stand i condemned for pride and scorn so much contempt farewell and maiden pride adieu no glory lives behind the back of such and benedict will requite thee taming my wild heart to thy loving hand if thou dost love my kindness shall incite thee to bind our loves up in a holy band slip no worse of thee then until your marriage be consummate then i go towards aragon i'll bring you thither my lord if you'll vouchshape me nay that would be a greatest soil in the glass of your new marriage as to show a child his new coat and forbid him to wear it i would be only so bold with senor benedict for his company for from the crown of his head to the sole of his foot he is not with mirth what his heart thinks his tongue speaks gallance i'm not as i have been so say i be thinks you're a sadder i hope he'd be in love in love hang him true aunt if there's not a true drop of blood in his body to be truly touched with love if he'd be sad he wants money i have a two thing draw it hang it you must hang it first then draw it afterwards on what a sigh for a toothache sure all may master a grief safe heat that has it nay but i think he'd be in love he brushes his hair a mornings what should that go he's rubbed himself with musk can you smell it out on him that's natural that's as much as to say the sweet youths in love and the greatest note of it is in his bell and colleague and when was he want to wash his face oh that is a grave sign indeed conclude conclude conclude he is in love nay but i know who loves him one that i would know too though i weren't one that knows him not and his ill conditions and in despite of all dies for him who man who is it nay and this is no cure for the toothache seniorly not a walk with me i have studied eight or nine wise words that these hobby horses must not hear oh to break with him about Beatrice is even so my lord and brother god save you good evening brother i would speak with you if it would suit your leisure in private if it please you although the noble Claudio may also hear as the matter concerns him why what is the matter i mean you to be wed tomorrow you know that he does i know that not when he knows what i know if there be any impediments i pray you discover it you may think i don't love you from what i'll reveal now but listen to what i have to say first and aim better once you've heard it from now what is the matter the lady is disloyal who hero yes your hero leonardo's hero every man's hero disloyal i could call her much worse think of you of a worst title and i would fit her to it but you must not believe me without reason come with me tonight and i will show you her chamber window being entered on the very night of her wedding by another man and if after that you still love her wed her but i think it would suit your honor better to change your mind may this be so i would not think it come with me and i will show you enough and when you've seen and heard more proceed accordingly if i should see anything tonight why i should not marry her tomorrow in the congregation where i should wed there will i shame her and as i have wooed for thee to obtain her i will join thee to shame her i will disparage her no further until you've been my witnesses bear coldly but till midnight and let the issue

heat of a luxurious bed her blushes guiltiness not modesty what do you mean my lord not to be married not to knit my soul to an approved wanted my lord if you in your own proof have vanquished the resistance of her youth and made defeat of her virginity i know what you would say if i have known her you would say i have embraced her as a husband no leonarda i never tempted her with word too large but as a brother to his sister showed bashful sincerity and calmly love and seemed i ever otherwise to you out on the scene you seem to me as dyanna as chases is the butt air would be blown but you are venus in your lusty blood is my lord well that he does speak the wide sweet prince why speak not you what should i speak i stand here dishonored haven't gone about linking my dear friend to a commonsdale are these words spoken or do i but dream these words are spoken these words are true this looks not like enough oh god true what man was he that talked with you yesterday out at your

and this grievant counts did see her hear her at that hour last night thus fair lady i am sorry for thy much misgovernment oh hero what a hero hat's now been if half thy outward graces have been placed about thy thoughts and counsels of thy heart it's fairly well most foul most fair fair well half no man's dagger here a point for me cousin how about the lady dead i think taking the heart away thy heavy hand for death is the fairest cover for her shame that maybe wish for well how now cousin hero have comfort lady does that look up yay wherefore should she not wherefore live not hero open not thy eyes or did i think that what's not quickly die would after countless curses more strike at the line why was thou so lovely in my eyes mine i loved and mine i praised and mine are so proud on mine lady please be patient for my own part i know not what to say i'm so tired and wonder oh on my soul my cousin is be lied hear me a little for i have only silent been so long by giving way into this course of fortune by noting of the lady i have marked a thousand blushing apparitions to start into her face a thousand innocent shames beat away those blushes and in her eye there hath appeared a fire to burn the errors that these princes hold against her maiden truth call me a fool trust not my reverence nor divinity if this sweet lady lie not guiltless here under some biting error but fryer you see she denies it not lady what man is he you are accused of they know that to accuse me i know none if i know of any man alive more than that wish you made in modesty dot the war and then let all my sins lack mercy oh my mother prove to you that any man in me conversed at hours unmet or the eye yesterday night maintained that change of words with that encourager but it refused me hate me torture me to death there is some strange misprison in the princes two of them have the very bent of honor and if they be misled in this the practice of it lies in don john the brother who's very sole toilets in the frame of villainy i know not if what they say is true and these hands shall tear her but if they wrong her honor and the proudest of them will well hear of it pause a while and let my counsel sway you in this case your daughter here the princes left for dead let her a while be secretly kept in and publish it that she is dead indeed maintain a mourning ostentations and on your family's old monument hang mournful epitaphs and perform all rites that appertain and to a burial what shall this do what will become of this she dying as it must be so maintained upon the instant that she was accused will be lamented pitted and excused so will it fare with claudio when he hears she died upon his words the idea of her life shall sweetly creep into his secret mind then mohi mourn and wish he had not so accused her let this be so and doubt not but successful fashion the event in better shape than i can lay down in likelihood but if all aim but this be leveled false the supposition of this lady's death will quench the wonder of her infamy and if it's sort not while you may conceal her as best perfects her wounded reputation in some reclusive and religious life eyes tongues minds and features though you know my inwardness and love is very much into the prince of claudio on my honor i will deal in this as secretly and justly as your soul should with your body the smallest twine may lead me to as well consented presently away for the strangest ills strangely concoct the cure your wedding's not prolonged be strong endure the Beatrice have you wept all of this while yay and i will weep a while longer i will not desire that you have no reason i do it freely surely i do believe your fair cousin is wrong how much might the man deserve of me that would write
