Act I, Scene iii: A Room in the Duke of Albany's Palace.
|
| | Gon.: | |
| | Did my father strike my gentleman for chiding of his fool? | |
|
|
| | Gon.: | |
| | By day and night, he wrongs me; every hour | |
| | He flashes into one gross crime or other, | |
| | That sets us all at odds; I'll not endure it: | |
| | His knights grow riotous, and himself upbraids us | |
| | On every trifle.—When he returns from hunting, | |
| | I will not speak with him; say I am sick.— | |
| | If you come slack of former services, | |
| | You shall do well; the fault of it I'll answer. | |
|
|
| | Osw.: | |
| | He's coming, madam; I hear him. | |
|
|
| | Gon.: | |
| | Put on what weary negligence you please, | |
| | You and your fellows; I'd have it come to question: | |
| | If he distaste it, let him to our sister, | |
| | Whose mind and mine, I know, in that are one, | |
| | Not to be overruled. Idle old man, | |
| | That still would manage those authorities | |
| | That he hath given away!—Now, by my life, | |
| | Old fools are babes again; and must be us'd | |
| | With checks as flatteries,—when they are seen abus'd. | |
| | Remember what I have said. | |
|
|
| | Gon.: | |
| | And let his knights have colder looks among you; | |
| | What grows of it, no matter; advise your fellows so; | |
| | I would breed from hence occasions, and I shall, | |
| | That I may speak.—I'll write straight to my sister | |
| | To hold my very course.—Prepare for dinner. | |
