| <H3>SCENE I. The sea-coast.</h3> | |
| <p><blockquote> | |
| <i>Enter ANTONIO and SEBASTIAN</i> | |
| </blockquote> | |
| <A NAME=speech1><b>ANTONIO</b></a> | |
| <blockquote> | |
| <A NAME=1>Will you stay no longer? nor will you not that I go with you?</A><br> | |
| </blockquote> | |
| <A NAME=speech2><b>SEBASTIAN</b></a> | |
| <blockquote> | |
| <A NAME=2>By your patience, no. My stars shine darkly over</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=3>me: the malignancy of my fate might perhaps</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=4>distemper yours; therefore I shall crave of you your</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=5>leave that I may bear my evils alone: it were a bad</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=6>recompense for your love, to lay any of them on you.</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=7>ANTONIO: Let me yet know of you whither you are bound.</A><br> | |
| </blockquote> | |
| <A NAME=speech3><b>SEBASTIAN</b></a> | |
| <blockquote> | |
| <A NAME=8>No, sooth, sir: my determinate voyage is mere</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=9>extravagancy. But I perceive in you so excellent a</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=10>touch of modesty, that you will not extort from me</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=11>what I am willing to keep in; therefore it charges</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=12>me in manners the rather to express myself. You</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=13>must know of me then, Antonio, my name is Sebastian,</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=14>which I called Roderigo. My father was that</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=15>Sebastian of Messaline, whom I know you have heard</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=16>of. He left behind him myself and a sister, both</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=17>born in an hour: if the heavens had been pleased,</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=18>would we had so ended! but you, sir, altered that;</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=19>for some hour before you took me from the breach of</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=20>the sea was my sister drowned.</A><br> | |
| </blockquote> | |
| <A NAME=speech4><b>ANTONIO</b></a> | |
| <blockquote> | |
| <A NAME=21>Alas the day!</A><br> | |
| </blockquote> | |
| <A NAME=speech5><b>SEBASTIAN</b></a> | |
| <blockquote> | |
| <A NAME=22>A lady, sir, though it was said she much resembled</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=23>me, was yet of many accounted beautiful: but,</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=24>though I could not with such estimable wonder</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=25>overfar believe that, yet thus far I will boldly</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=26>publish her; she bore a mind that envy could not but</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=27>call fair. She is drowned already, sir, with salt</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=28>water, though I seem to drown her remembrance again with more.</A><br> | |
| </blockquote> | |
| <A NAME=speech6><b>ANTONIO</b></a> | |
| <blockquote> | |
| <A NAME=29>Pardon me, sir, your bad entertainment.</A><br> | |
| </blockquote> | |
| <A NAME=speech7><b>SEBASTIAN</b></a> | |
| <blockquote> | |
| <A NAME=30>O good Antonio, forgive me your trouble.</A><br> | |
| </blockquote> | |
| <A NAME=speech8><b>ANTONIO</b></a> | |
| <blockquote> | |
| <A NAME=31>If you will not murder me for my love, let me be</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=32>your servant.</A><br> | |
| </blockquote> | |
| <A NAME=speech9><b>SEBASTIAN</b></a> | |
| <blockquote> | |
| <A NAME=33>If you will not undo what you have done, that is,</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=34>kill him whom you have recovered, desire it not.</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=35>Fare ye well at once: my bosom is full of kindness,</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=36>and I am yet so near the manners of my mother, that</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=37>upon the least occasion more mine eyes will tell</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=38>tales of me. I am bound to the Count Orsino's court: farewell.</A><br> | |
| <p><i>Exit</i></p> | |
| </blockquote> | |
| <A NAME=speech10><b>ANTONIO</b></a> | |
| <blockquote> | |
| <A NAME=39>The gentleness of all the gods go with thee!</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=40>I have many enemies in Orsino's court,</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=41>Else would I very shortly see thee there.</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=42>But, come what may, I do adore thee so,</A><br> | |
| <A NAME=43>That danger shall seem sport, and I will go.</A><br> | |
| <p><i>Exit</i></p> | |
