some little time hath qualified the heat of his displeasure,
|
which at this instant so rageth in him, that with the mischiefe
|
of your person, it would scarsely alay
|
Edg. Some Villaine hath done me wrong
|
Edm. That's my feare, I pray you haue a continent
|
forbearance till the speed of his rage goes slower: and as
|
I say, retire with me to my lodging, from whence I will
|
fitly bring you to heare my Lord speake: pray ye goe,
|
there's my key: if you do stirre abroad, goe arm'd
|
Edg. Arm'd, Brother?
|
Edm. Brother, I aduise you to the best, I am no honest
|
man, if ther be any good meaning toward you: I haue told
|
you what I haue seene, and heard: But faintly. Nothing
|
like the image, and horror of it, pray you away
|
Edg. Shall I heare from you anon?
|
Enter.
|
Edm. I do serue you in this businesse:
|
A Credulous Father, and a Brother Noble,
|
Whose nature is so farre from doing harmes,
|
That he suspects none: on whose foolish honestie
|
My practises ride easie: I see the businesse.
|
Let me, if not by birth, haue lands by wit,
|
All with me's meete, that I can fashion fit.
|
Enter.
|
Scena Tertia.
|
Enter Gonerill, and Steward.
|
Gon. Did my Father strike my Gentleman for chiding
|
of his Foole?
|
Ste. I Madam
|
Gon. By day and night, he wrongs me, euery howre
|
He flashes into one grosse crime, or other,
|
That sets vs all at ods: Ile not endure it;
|
His Knights grow riotous, and himselfe vpbraides vs
|
On euery trifle. When he returnes from hunting,
|
I will not speake with him, say I am sicke,
|
If you come slacke of former seruices,
|
You shall do well, the fault of it Ile answer
|
Ste. He's comming Madam, I heare him
|
Gon. Put on what weary negligence you please,
|
You and your Fellowes: I'de haue it come to question;
|
If he distaste it, let him to my Sister,
|
Whose mind and mine I know in that are one,
|
Remember what I haue said
|
Ste. Well Madam
|
Gon. And let his Knights haue colder lookes among
|
you: what growes of it no matter, aduise your fellowes
|
so, Ile write straight to my Sister to hold my course; prepare
|
for dinner.
|
Exeunt.
|
Scena Quarta.
|
Enter Kent.
|
Kent. If but as will I other accents borrow,
|
That can my speech defuse, my good intent
|
May carry through it selfe to that full issue
|
For which I raiz'd my likenesse. Now banisht Kent,
|
If thou canst serue where thou dost stand condemn'd,
|
So may it come, thy Master whom thou lou'st,
|
Shall find thee full of labours.
|
Hornes within. Enter Lear and Attendants.
|
Lear. Let me not stay a iot for dinner, go get it ready:
|
how now, what art thou?
|
Kent. A man Sir
|
Lear. What dost thou professe? What would'st thou
|
with vs?
|
Kent. I do professe to be no lesse then I seeme; to serue
|
him truely that will put me in trust, to loue him that is
|
honest, to conuerse with him that is wise and saies little, to
|
feare iudgement, to fight when I cannot choose, and to
|
eate no fish
