But you, Sir Thurio, are not sharp enough;

Duke. Ay, much the force of heaven - bred poesy, Pro. Say, that upon the altar of her beauty You sacrifice tears, your sighs, your heart: Write, till your ink be dry; and with your tears Moist it again, and frame some feeling line, That may discover such integrity:

steel and stones.

Make tigers tame, and huge leviathans

Forsake unsounded deeps to dance on sands.
After your dire lamenting elegies,

Visit by tight your lady's chamber window
With some sweet concert: to their instruments
Tune a deploring dump; the night's dead silence,
Will well b
become such sweet complaining grievance,
This, else nothing, will inherit her.

Duke. This discipline shows thou hast been in

love.

Therefore, sweet Proteus, my direction-giver,
Let us into the city presently Fir

To give the onset to thy good advice,
