Provost: |
I would do more than that, if more were needful. |
Look, here comes one: a gentlewoman of mine, |
Who, falling in the flaws of her own youth, |
Hath blister'd her report: she is with child; |
And he that got it, sentenced; a young man |
More fit to do another such offence |
Than die for this. |
DUKE VINCENTIO: |
When must he die? |
Provost: |
As I do think, to-morrow. |
I have provided for you: stay awhile, |
And you shall be conducted. |
DUKE VINCENTIO: |
Repent you, fair one, of the sin you carry? |
JULIET: |
I do; and bear the shame most patiently. |
DUKE VINCENTIO: |
I'll teach you how you shall arraign your conscience, |
And try your penitence, if it be sound, |
Or hollowly put on. |
JULIET: |
I'll gladly learn. |
DUKE VINCENTIO: |
Love you the man that wrong'd you? |
JULIET: |
Yes, as I love the woman that wrong'd him. |
DUKE VINCENTIO: |
So then it seems your most offenceful act |
Was mutually committed? |
JULIET: |
Mutually. |
DUKE VINCENTIO: |
Then was your sin of heavier kind than his. |
JULIET: |
I do confess it, and repent it, father. |
DUKE VINCENTIO: |
'Tis meet so, daughter: but lest you do repent, |
As that the sin hath brought you to this shame, |
Which sorrow is always towards ourselves, not heaven, |
Showing we would not spare heaven as we love it, |
But as we stand in fear,-- |
JULIET: |
I do repent me, as it is an evil, |
And take the shame with joy. |
DUKE VINCENTIO: |
There rest. |
Your partner, as I hear, must die to-morrow, |
And I am going with instruction to him. |
Grace go with you, Benedicite! |
JULIET: |
Must die to-morrow! O injurious love, |
That respites me a life, whose very comfort |
Is still a dying horror! |
Provost: |
'Tis pity of him. |
ANGELO: |
When I would pray and think, I think and pray |
To several subjects. Heaven hath my empty words; |
Whilst my invention, hearing not my tongue, |
Anchors on Isabel: Heaven in my mouth, |
As if I did but only chew his name; |
And in my heart the strong and swelling evil |
Of my conception. The state, whereon I studied |
Is like a good thing, being often read, |
Grown fear'd and tedious; yea, my gravity, |
Wherein--let no man hear me--I take pride, |
Could I with boot change for an idle plume, |
Which the air beats for vain. O place, O form, |
How often dost thou with thy case, thy habit, |
Wrench awe from fools and tie the wiser souls |
To thy false seeming! Blood, thou art blood: |
Let's write good angel on the devil's horn: |
'Tis not the devil's crest. |
How now! who's there? |
Servant: |
One Isabel, a sister, desires access to you. |
ANGELO: |
