SIR TOBY.
|
What shall we do else? were we not born under Taurus?
|
SIR ANDREW.
|
Taurus? that's sides and heart.
|
SIR TOBY.
|
No, sir; it is legs and thighs. Let me see thee caper: ha,
|
higher: ha, ha!--excellent!
|
[Exeunt.]
|
SCENE IV.
|
A Room in the DUKE'S Palace.
|
[Enter VALENTINE, and VIOLA in man's attire.]
|
VALENTINE.
|
If the duke continue these favours towards you, Cesario,
|
you are like to be much advanced; he hath known you but three
|
days, and already you are no stranger.
|
VIOLA.
|
You either fear his humour or my negligence, that you call
|
in question the continuance of his love. Is he inconstant, sir,
|
in his favours?
|
VALENTINE.
|
No, believe me.
|
[Enter DUKE, CURIO, and Attendants.]
|
VIOLA.
|
I thank you. Here comes the count.
|
DUKE.
|
Who saw Cesario, ho?
|
VIOLA.
|
On your attendance, my lord; here.
|
DUKE.
|
Stand you awhile aloof.--Cesario,
|
Thou know'st no less but all; I have unclasp'd
|
To thee the book even of my secret soul:
|
Therefore, good youth, address thy gait unto her;
|
Be not denied access, stand at her doors,
|
And tell them there thy fixed foot shall grow
|
Till thou have audience.
|
VIOLA.
|
Sure, my noble lord,
|
If she be so abandon'd to her sorrow
|
As it is spoke, she never will admit me.
|
DUKE.
|
Be clamorous and leap all civil bounds,
|
Rather than make unprofited return.
|
VIOLA.
|
Say I do speak with her, my lord. What then?
|
DUKE.
|
O, then unfold the passion of my love,
|
Surprise her with discourse of my dear faith:
|
It shall become thee well to act my woes;
|
She will attend it better in thy youth
|
Than in a nuncio of more grave aspect.
|
VIOLA.
|
I think not so, my lord.
|
DUKE.
|
Dear lad, believe it,
|
For they shall yet belie thy happy years
|
That say thou art a man: Diana's lip
|
Is not more smooth and rubious; thy small pipe
|
Is as the maiden's organ, shrill and sound,
|
And all is semblative a woman's part.
|
I know thy constellation is right apt
|
For this affair:--some four or five attend him:
|
All, if you will; for I myself am best
|
When least in company:--prosper well in this,
|
And thou shalt live as freely as thy lord,
|
To call his fortunes thine.
|
VIOLA.
|
I'll do my best
|
To woo your lady. [Aside] Yet, a barful strife!
|
Whoe'er I woo, myself would be his wife.
