   Act5 Scene4 Two Gentlemen of Verona维洛那二绅士

   ACT V SCENE IV Another part of the forest. VALENTINEHow use doth breed a habit in a man! This shadowy desert, unfrequented woods, I better brook than flourishing peopled towns: Here can I sit alone, unseen of any, And to the nightingale's complaining notes5 Tune my distresses and record my woes. O thou that dost inhabit in my breast, Leave not the mansion so long tenantless, Lest, growing ruinous, the building fall And leave no memory of what it was!10 Repair me with thy presence, Silvia; Thou gentle nymph, cherish thy forlorn swain! What halloing and what stir is this to-day? These are my mates, that make their wills their law, Have some unhappy passenger in chase.15 They love me well; yet I have much to do To keep them from uncivil outrages. Withdraw thee, Valentine: who's this comes here? [Enter PROTEUS, SILVIA, and JULIA] PROTEUSMadam, this service I have done for you, Though you respect not aught your servant doth,20 To hazard life and rescue you from him That would have forced your honour and your love; Vouchsafe me, for my meed, but one fair look; A smaller boon than this I cannot beg And less than this, I am sure, you cannot give.25 VALENTINE[Aside] How like a dream is this I see and hear! Love, lend me patience to forbear awhile. SILVIAO miserable, unhappy that I am! PROTEUSUnhappy were you, madam, ere I came; But by my coming I have made you happy.30 SILVIABy thy approach thou makest me most unhappy. JULIA[Aside] And me, when he approacheth to your presence. SILVIAHad I been seized by a hungry lion, I would have been a breakfast to the beast, Rather than have false Proteus rescue me.35 O, Heaven be judge how I love Valentine, Whose life's as tender to me as my soul! And full as much, for more there cannot be, I do detest false perjured Proteus. Therefore be gone; solicit me no more.40 PROTEUSWhat dangerous action, stood it next to death, Would I not undergo for one calm look! O, 'tis the curse in love, and still approved, When women cannot love where they're beloved! SILVIAWhen Proteus cannot love where he's beloved.45 Read over Julia's heart, thy first best love, For whose dear sake thou didst then rend thy faith Into a thousand oaths; and all those oaths Descended into perjury, to love me. Thou hast no faith left now, unless thou'dst two;50 And that's far worse than none; better have none Than plural faith which is too much by one: Thou counterfeit to thy true friend! PROTEUSIn love Who respects friend?55 SILVIAAll men but Proteus. PROTEUSNay, if the gentle spirit of moving words Can no way change you to a milder form, I'll woo you like a soldier, at arms' end, And love you 'gainst the nature of love,--force ye.60 SILVIAO heaven! PROTEUSI'll force thee yield to my desire. VALENTINERuffian, let go that rude uncivil touch, Thou friend of an ill fashion! PROTEUSValentine!65 VALENTINEThou common friend, that's without faith or love, For such is a friend now; treacherous man! Thou hast beguiled my hopes; nought but mine eye Could have persuaded me: now I dare not say I have one friend alive; thou wouldst disprove me.70 Who should be trusted, when one's own right hand Is perjured to the bosom? Proteus, I am sorry I must never trust thee more, But count the world a stranger for thy sake. The private wound is deepest: O time most accurst,75 'Mongst all foes that a friend should be the worst! PROTEUSMy shame and guilt confounds me. Forgive me, Valentine: if hearty sorrow Be a sufficient ransom for offence, I tender 't here; I do as truly suffer80 As e'er I did commit. VALENTINEThen I am paid; And once again I do receive thee honest. Who by repentance is not satisfied Is nor of heaven nor earth, for these are pleased.85 By penitence the Eternal's wrath's appeased: And, that my love may appear plain and free, All that was mine in Silvia I give thee. JULIAO me unhappy! [Swoons] PROTEUSLook to the boy.90 VALENTINEWhy, boy! why, wag! how now! what's the matter? Look up; speak. JULIAO good sir, my master charged me to deliver a ring to Madam Silvia, which, out of my neglect, was never done. PROTEUSWhere is that ring, boy?95 JULIAHere 'tis; this is it. PROTEUSHow! let me see: Why, this is the ring I gave to Julia. JULIAO, cry you mercy, sir, I have mistook: This is the ring you sent to Silvia.100 PROTEUSBut how camest thou by this ring? At my depart I gave this unto Julia. JULIAAnd Julia herself did give it me; And Julia herself hath brought it hither. PROTEUSHow! Julia!105 JULIABehold her that gave aim to all thy oaths, And entertain'd 'em deeply in her heart. How oft hast thou with perjury cleft the root! O Proteus, let this habit make thee blush! Be thou ashamed that I have took upon me110 Such an immodest raiment, if shame live In a disguise of love: It is the lesser blot, modesty finds, Women to change their shapes than men their minds. PROTEUSThan men their minds! 'tis true.115 O heaven! were man But constant, he were perfect. That one error Fills him with faults; makes him run through all the sins: Inconstancy falls off ere it begins. What is in Silvia's face, but I may spy120 More fresh in Julia's with a constant eye? VALENTINECome, come, a hand from either: Let me be blest to make this happy close; 'Twere pity two such friends should be long foes. PROTEUSBear witness, Heaven, I have my wish for ever.125 JULIAAnd I mine. [Enter Outlaws, with DUKE and THURIO] OutlawsA prize, a prize, a prize! VALENTINEForbear, forbear, I say! it is my lord the duke. Your grace is welcome to a man disgraced, Banished Valentine.130 DUKESir Valentine! THURIOYonder is Silvia; and Silvia's mine. VALENTINEThurio, give back, or else embrace thy death; Come not within the measure of my wrath; Do not name Silvia thine; if once again,135 Verona shall not hold thee. Here she stands; Take but possession of her with a touch: I dare thee but to breathe upon my love. THURIOSir Valentine, I care not for her, I; I hold him but a fool that will endanger140 His body for a girl that loves him not: I claim her not, and therefore she is thine. DUKEThe more degenerate and base art thou, To make such means for her as thou hast done And leave her on such slight conditions.145 Now, by the honour of my ancestry, I do applaud thy spirit, Valentine, And think thee worthy of an empress' love: Know then, I here forget all former griefs, Cancel all grudge, repeal thee home again,150 Plead a new state in thy unrivall'd merit, To which I thus subscribe: Sir Valentine, Thou art a gentleman and well derived; Take thou thy Silvia, for thou hast deserved her. VALENTINEI thank your grace; the gift hath made me happy.155 I now beseech you, for your daughter's sake, To grant one boom that I shall ask of you. DUKEI grant it, for thine own, whate'er it be. VALENTINEThese banish'd men that I have kept withal Are men endued with worthy qualities:160 Forgive them what they have committed here And let them be recall'd from their exile: They are reformed, civil, full of good And fit for great employment, worthy lord. DUKEThou hast prevail'd; I pardon them and thee:165 Dispose of them as thou know'st their deserts. Come, let us go: we will include all jars With triumphs, mirth and rare solemnity. VALENTINEAnd, as we walk along, I dare be bold With our discourse to make your grace to smile.170 What think you of this page, my lord? DUKEI think the boy hath grace in him; he blushes. VALENTINEI warrant you, my lord, more grace than boy. DUKEWhat mean you by that saying? VALENTINEPlease you, I'll tell you as we pass along,175 That you will wonder what hath fortuned. Come, Proteus; 'tis your penance but to hear The story of your loves discovered: That done, our day of marriage shall be yours; One feast, one house, one mutual happiness.180 [Exeunt]

SILVIAA thousand more mischances than this one Have learn'd me how to brook this patiently. Second OutlawCome, bring her away.5 First OutlawWhere is the gentleman that was with her? Third OutlawBeing nimble-footed, he hath outrun us, But Moyses and Valerius follow him. Go thou with her to the west end of the wood; There is our captain: we'll follow him that's fled;10 The thicket is beset; he cannot 'scape. First OutlawCome, I must bring you to our captain's cave: Fear not; he bears an honourable mind, And will not use a woman lawlessly. SILVIAO Valentine, this I endure for thee!15 [Exeunt]

   Act5 Scene2 Two Gentlemen of Verona维洛那二绅士

   ACT V SCENE II The same. The Duke's Palace. [Enter THURIO, PROTEUS, and JULIA] THURIOSir Proteus, what says Silvia to my suit? PROTEUSO, sir, I find her milder than she was; And yet she takes exceptions at your person. THURIOWhat, that my leg is too long? PROTEUSNo; that it is too little.5 THURIOI'll wear a boot, to make it somewhat rounder. JULIA[Aside] But love will not be spurr'd to what it loathes. THURIOWhat says she to my face? PROTEUSShe says it is a fair one.10 THURIONay then, the wanton lies; my face is black. PROTEUSBut pearls are fair; and the old saying is, Black men are pearls in beauteous ladies' eyes. JULIA[Aside] 'Tis true; such pearls as put out ladies' eyes;15 For I had rather wink than look on them. THURIOHow likes she my discourse? PROTEUSIll, when you talk of war. THURIOBut well, when I discourse of love and peace? JULIA[Aside] But better, indeed, when you hold your peace.20 THURIOWhat says she to my valour? PROTEUSO, sir, she makes no doubt of that. JULIA[Aside] She needs not, when she knows it cowardice. THURIOWhat says she to my birth? PROTEUSThat you are well derived.25 JULIA[Aside] True; from a gentleman to a fool. THURIOConsiders she my possessions? PROTEUSO, ay; and pities them. THURIOWherefore? JULIA[Aside] That such an ass should owe them.30 PROTEUSThat they are out by lease. JULIAHere comes the duke. [Enter DUKE] DUKEHow now, Sir Proteus! how now, Thurio! Which of you saw Sir Eglamour of late? THURIONot I.35 PROTEUSNor I. DUKESaw you my daughter? PROTEUSNeither. DUKEWhy then, She's fled unto that peasant Valentine;40 And Eglamour is in her company. 'Tis true; for Friar Laurence met them both, As he in penance wander'd through the forest; Him he knew well, and guess'd that it was she, But, being mask'd, he was not sure of it;45 Besides, she did intend confession At Patrick's cell this even; and there she was not; These likelihoods confirm her flight from hence. Therefore, I pray you, stand not to discourse, But mount you presently and meet with me50 Upon the rising of the mountain-foot That leads towards Mantua, whither they are fled: Dispatch, sweet gentlemen, and follow me. [Exit] THURIOWhy, this it is to be a peevish girl, That flies her fortune when it follows her.55 I'll after, more to be revenged on Eglamour Than for the love of reckless Silvia. [Exit] PROTEUSAnd I will follow, more for Silvia's love Than hate of Eglamour that goes with her. [Exit] JULIAAnd I will follow, more to cross that love60 Than hate for Silvia that is gone for love. [Exit]
