[Enter SIR TOBY BELCH, SIR ANDREW AGUE-CHEEK, and FABIAN.]
|
SIR TOBY.
|
Come thy ways, Signior Fabian.
|
FABIAN.
|
Nay, I'll come; if I lose a scruple of this sport let me be
|
boiled to death with melancholy.
|
SIR TOBY.
|
Wouldst thou not be glad to have the niggardly rascally
|
sheep-biter come by some notable shame?
|
FABIAN.
|
I would exult, man; you know he brought me out o' favour
|
with my lady about a bear-baiting here.
|
SIR TOBY.
|
To anger him we'll have the bear again; and we will fool
|
him black and blue:--shall we not, Sir Andrew?
|
SIR ANDREW.
|
An we do not, it is pity of our lives.
|
[Enter MARIA.]
|
SIR TOBY.
|
Here comes the little villain:--How now, my nettle of India?
|
MARIA.
|
Get ye all three into the box-tree: Malvolio's coming down
|
this walk; he has been yonder i' the sun practising behaviour to
|
his own shadow this half hour: observe him, for the love of
|
mockery; for I know this letter will make a contemplative idiot
|
of him. Close, in the name of jesting! [The men hide themselves.]
|
Lie thou there; [Throws down a letter] for here comes the trout
|
that must be caught with tickling.
|
[Exit Maria.]
|
[Enter MALVOLIO.]
|
MALVOLIO.
|
'Tis but fortune; all is fortune. Maria once told me she
|
did affect me: and I have heard herself come thus near, that,
|
should she fancy, it should be one of my complexion. Besides, she
|
uses me with a more exalted respect than any one else that
|
follows her. What should I think on't?
|
SIR TOBY.
|
Here's an overweening rogue!
|
FABIAN.
|
O, peace! Contemplation makes a rare turkey-cock of him;
|
how he jets under his advanced plumes!
|
SIR ANDREW.
|
'Slight, I could so beat the rogue:--
|
SIR TOBY.
|
Peace, I say.
|
MALVOLIO.
|
To be Count Malvolio;--
|
SIR TOBY.
|
Ah, rogue!
|
SIR ANDREW.
|
Pistol him, pistol him.
|
SIR TOBY.
|
Peace, peace.
|
MALVOLIO.
|
There is example for't; the lady of the Strachy married
|
the yeoman of the wardrobe.
|
SIR ANDREW.
|
Fie on him, Jezebel!
|
FABIAN.
|
O, peace! now he's deeply in; look how imagination blows him.
|
MALVOLIO.
|
Having been three months married to her, sitting in my state,--
|
SIR TOBY.
|
O for a stone-bow to hit him in the eye!
|
MALVOLIO.
|
Calling my officers about me, in my branched velvet gown;
|
having come from a day-bed, where I have left Olivia sleeping.
|
SIR TOBY.
|
Fire and brimstone!
|
FABIAN.
|
O, peace, peace.
