What law does vouch mine own. Bertram. What would you have? Helena. Something; and scarce są much :-nothing, indeed. I would not tell you what I would: my lord-'faith, yes;— Strangers and foes, do sunder, and not kiss. Bertram. I pray you, stay not, but in haste to horse. Helena. I shall not break your bidding, good my lord. ACT V. SCENE III. Lafeu. This I must say, But first I beg my pardon,-The young lord Of richest eyes; whose words all ears took captive; PRAY, sir, tell me,-Is it possible That love should of a sudden take such hold? Lucentio. O Tranio, till I found it to be true, I never thought it possible, or likely; But see! while idly I stood looking on, Tranio. Master, you look'd so longly on the maid, Perhaps you mark'd not what's the pith of all. Lucentio. O yes, I saw sweet beauty in her face, Such as the daughter of Agenor had, That made great Jove to humble him to her hand, Tranio. Saw you no more; mark'd you not how her sister Began to scold; and raise up such a storm, ACT IV. SCENE V. Katharina. Forward, I pray, since we have come so far, And be it moon, or sun, or what you please : And if you please to call it a rush candle, Petruchio. I say, it is the moon. Katharina. I know it is. Petruchio. Nay, then you lie; it is the blessed sun. Katharina. Then, God be bless'd, it is the blessed sun :--But sun it is not, when you say it is not; And the moon changes, even as your mind. And so it shall be so, for Katharine. Hortensio. Petruchio, go thy ways; the field is won. * 32 * Katharina. Pardon, old father, my mistaking eyes, ACT V. SCENE II. Petruchio. Katharine, I charge thee, tell these headstrong women What duty they do owe their lords and husbands. Katharina. Fye, fye! unknit that threat'ning unkind brow; And dart not scornful glances from those eyes, To wound thy lord, thy king, thy governor : It blots thy beauty, as frosts do bite the meads; A woman mov'd, is like a fountain troubled, And, not obedient to his honest will, What is she, but a foul contending rebel, And graceless traitor to her loving lord?— To offer war, where they should kneel for peace; When they are bound to serve, love, and obey. Our strength as weak, our weakness past compare,- My hand is ready, may it do him ease. до |
