Jul. But better, indeed, when you hold your peace. Thu. What says she to my valour ? Pro. Oh, sir, she makes no doubt of that. [Aside. Jul. She needs not, when she knows it cowardice. [Aside. Thu. What says she to my birth? Pro. That you are well deriv'd. Jul. True; from a gentleman to a fool. [Aside, Thu. Considers she my possessions? Pro. O, ay; and pities them. Thu. Wherefore ? Jul. That such an ass should owe them. [Aside. Duke. Why, then she's fled unto that peasant Valentine; And Eglamour is in her company. 'Tis true; for friar Laurence met them both, As he in penance wander'd through the forest: 50 At At Patrick's cell this even; and there she was not: 60 [Exit Duke. Thu. Why, this it is to be a peevish girl, That flies her fortune when it follows her: I'll after; more to be reveng'd on Eglamour, Than for the love of reckless Silvia. Pro. And I will follow, more for Silvia's love, Than hate of Eglamour that goes with her. Jul. And I will follow, more to cross that love, Than hate for Silvia, that is gone for love. [Exeunt. SCENE III. The Forest. Enter SILVIA, and Out-Laws. 1 Out. Come, come; Be patient, we must bring you to our captain. Sil. A thousand more mischances, than this one, Have learn'd me how to brook this patiently. 2 Out. Come, bring her away. 1 Out. Where is the gentleman that was with her? Out. Being nimble-footed, he hath out-run us; 3 But Moyses, and Valerius, follow him. Go thou with her to the west end of the wood, There is our captain: we'll follow him that's fled; 8. The thicket is beset, he cannot 'scape. 1 Out. Come, I must bring you to our captain's cave: Fear not; he bears an honourable mind, And will not use a woman lawlessly. Sil. O Valentine, this I endure for thee! [Exeunt. SCENE IV. The Out-Laws' Cave in the Forest. Enter VALENTINE. Val. How use doth breed a habit in a man! And, to the nightingale's complaining notes, Thou gentle nymph, cherish thy forlorn swain !-- They love me well; yet I have much to do, 100 Withdraw thee, Valentine; Who's this comes here? [VAL. steps aside. Enter |
