+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>LEONATO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I learn in this letter that Don Peter of Arragon</LINE>
+<LINE>comes this night to Messina.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>Messenger</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>He is very near by this: he was not three leagues off</LINE>
+<LINE>when I left him.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>LEONATO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>How many gentlemen have you lost in this action?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>Messenger</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>But few of any sort, and none of name.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>LEONATO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>A victory is twice itself when the achiever brings</LINE>
+<LINE>home full numbers. I find here that Don Peter hath</LINE>
+<LINE>bestowed much honour on a young Florentine called Claudio.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>Messenger</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Much deserved on his part and equally remembered by</LINE>
+<LINE>Don Pedro: he hath borne himself beyond the</LINE>
+<LINE>promise of his age, doing, in the figure of a lamb,</LINE>
+<LINE>the feats of a lion: he hath indeed better</LINE>
+<LINE>bettered expectation than you must expect of me to</LINE>
+<LINE>tell you how.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>LEONATO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>He hath an uncle here in Messina will be very much</LINE>
+<LINE>glad of it.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>Messenger</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I have already delivered him letters, and there</LINE>
+<LINE>appears much joy in him; even so much that joy could</LINE>
+<LINE>not show itself modest enough without a badge of</LINE>
+<LINE>bitterness.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>LEONATO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Did he break out into tears?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>Messenger</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>In great measure.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>LEONATO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>A kind overflow of kindness: there are no faces</LINE>
+<LINE>truer than those that are so washed. How much</LINE>
+<LINE>better is it to weep at joy than to joy at weeping!</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I pray you, is Signior Mountanto returned from the</LINE>
+<LINE>wars or no?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>Messenger</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I know none of that name, lady: there was none such</LINE>
+<LINE>in the army of any sort.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>LEONATO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>What is he that you ask for, niece?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>HERO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>My cousin means Signior Benedick of Padua.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>Messenger</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>O, he's returned; and as pleasant as ever he was.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>He set up his bills here in Messina and challenged</LINE>
+<LINE>Cupid at the flight; and my uncle's fool, reading</LINE>
+<LINE>the challenge, subscribed for Cupid, and challenged</LINE>
+<LINE>him at the bird-bolt. I pray you, how many hath he</LINE>
+<LINE>killed and eaten in these wars? But how many hath</LINE>
+<LINE>he killed? for indeed I promised to eat all of his killing.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>LEONATO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Faith, niece, you tax Signior Benedick too much;</LINE>
+<LINE>but he'll be meet with you, I doubt it not.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>Messenger</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>He hath done good service, lady, in these wars.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>You had musty victual, and he hath holp to eat it:</LINE>
+<LINE>he is a very valiant trencherman; he hath an</LINE>
+<LINE>excellent stomach.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>Messenger</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>And a good soldier too, lady.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>And a good soldier to a lady: but what is he to a lord?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>Messenger</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>A lord to a lord, a man to a man; stuffed with all</LINE>
+<LINE>honourable virtues.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>It is so, indeed; he is no less than a stuffed man:</LINE>
+<LINE>but for the stuffing,--well, we are all mortal.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>LEONATO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>You must not, sir, mistake my niece. There is a</LINE>
+<LINE>kind of merry war betwixt Signior Benedick and her:</LINE>
+<LINE>they never meet but there's a skirmish of wit</LINE>
+<LINE>between them.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Alas! he gets nothing by that. In our last</LINE>
+<LINE>conflict four of his five wits went halting off, and</LINE>
+<LINE>now is the whole man governed with one: so that if</LINE>
+<LINE>he have wit enough to keep himself warm, let him</LINE>
+<LINE>bear it for a difference between himself and his</LINE>
+<LINE>horse; for it is all the wealth that he hath left,</LINE>
+<LINE>to be known a reasonable creature. Who is his</LINE>
+<LINE>companion now? He hath every month a new sworn brother.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>Messenger</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Is't possible?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Very easily possible: he wears his faith but as</LINE>
+<LINE>the fashion of his hat; it ever changes with the</LINE>
+<LINE>next block.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>Messenger</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I see, lady, the gentleman is not in your books.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>No; an he were, I would burn my study. But, I pray</LINE>
+<LINE>you, who is his companion? Is there no young</LINE>
+<LINE>squarer now that will make a voyage with him to the devil?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>Messenger</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>He is most in the company of the right noble Claudio.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>O Lord, he will hang upon him like a disease: he</LINE>
+<LINE>is sooner caught than the pestilence, and the taker</LINE>
+<LINE>runs presently mad. God help the noble Claudio! if</LINE>
+<LINE>he have caught the Benedick, it will cost him a</LINE>
+<LINE>thousand pound ere a' be cured.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>Messenger</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I will hold friends with you, lady.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Do, good friend.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>LEONATO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>You will never run mad, niece.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>No, not till a hot January.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>Messenger</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Don Pedro is approached.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+
+<STAGEDIR>Enter DON PEDRO, DON JOHN, CLAUDIO, BENEDICK,
+and BALTHASAR</STAGEDIR>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>DON PEDRO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Good Signior Leonato, you are come to meet your</LINE>
+<LINE>trouble: the fashion of the world is to avoid</LINE>
+<LINE>cost, and you encounter it.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>LEONATO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Never came trouble to my house in the likeness of</LINE>
+<LINE>your grace: for trouble being gone, comfort should</LINE>
+<LINE>remain; but when you depart from me, sorrow abides</LINE>
+<LINE>and happiness takes his leave.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>DON PEDRO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>You embrace your charge too willingly. I think this</LINE>
+<LINE>is your daughter.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>LEONATO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Her mother hath many times told me so.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Were you in doubt, sir, that you asked her?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>LEONATO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Signior Benedick, no; for then were you a child.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>DON PEDRO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>You have it full, Benedick: we may guess by this</LINE>
+<LINE>what you are, being a man. Truly, the lady fathers</LINE>
+<LINE>herself. Be happy, lady; for you are like an</LINE>
+<LINE>honourable father.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>If Signior Leonato be her father, she would not</LINE>
+<LINE>have his head on her shoulders for all Messina, as</LINE>
+<LINE>like him as she is.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I wonder that you will still be talking, Signior</LINE>
+<LINE>Benedick: nobody marks you.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>What, my dear Lady Disdain! are you yet living?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Is it possible disdain should die while she hath</LINE>
+<LINE>such meet food to feed it as Signior Benedick?</LINE>
+<LINE>Courtesy itself must convert to disdain, if you come</LINE>
+<LINE>in her presence.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Then is courtesy a turncoat. But it is certain I</LINE>
+<LINE>am loved of all ladies, only you excepted: and I</LINE>
+<LINE>would I could find in my heart that I had not a hard</LINE>
+<LINE>heart; for, truly, I love none.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>A dear happiness to women: they would else have</LINE>
+<LINE>been troubled with a pernicious suitor. I thank God</LINE>
+<LINE>and my cold blood, I am of your humour for that: I</LINE>
+<LINE>had rather hear my dog bark at a crow than a man</LINE>
+<LINE>swear he loves me.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>God keep your ladyship still in that mind! so some</LINE>
+<LINE>gentleman or other shall 'scape a predestinate</LINE>
+<LINE>scratched face.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Scratching could not make it worse, an 'twere such</LINE>
+<LINE>a face as yours were.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Well, you are a rare parrot-teacher.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>A bird of my tongue is better than a beast of yours.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I would my horse had the speed of your tongue, and</LINE>
+<LINE>so good a continuer. But keep your way, i' God's</LINE>
+<LINE>name; I have done.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>You always end with a jade's trick: I know you of old.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>DON PEDRO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>That is the sum of all, Leonato. Signior Claudio</LINE>
+<LINE>and Signior Benedick, my dear friend Leonato hath</LINE>
+<LINE>invited you all. I tell him we shall stay here at</LINE>
+<LINE>the least a month; and he heartily prays some</LINE>
+<LINE>occasion may detain us longer. I dare swear he is no</LINE>
+<LINE>hypocrite, but prays from his heart.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>LEONATO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>If you swear, my lord, you shall not be forsworn.</LINE>
+<STAGEDIR>To DON JOHN</STAGEDIR>
+<LINE>Let me bid you welcome, my lord: being reconciled to</LINE>
+<LINE>the prince your brother, I owe you all duty.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>DON JOHN</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I thank you: I am not of many words, but I thank</LINE>
+<LINE>you.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>LEONATO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Please it your grace lead on?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>DON PEDRO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Your hand, Leonato; we will go together.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+
+<STAGEDIR>Exeunt all except BENEDICK and CLAUDIO</STAGEDIR>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>CLAUDIO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Benedick, didst thou note the daughter of Signior Leonato?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I noted her not; but I looked on her.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>CLAUDIO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Is she not a modest young lady?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Do you question me, as an honest man should do, for</LINE>
+<LINE>my simple true judgment; or would you have me speak</LINE>
+<LINE>after my custom, as being a professed tyrant to their sex?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>CLAUDIO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>No; I pray thee speak in sober judgment.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Why, i' faith, methinks she's too low for a high</LINE>
+<LINE>praise, too brown for a fair praise and too little</LINE>
+<LINE>for a great praise: only this commendation I can</LINE>
+<LINE>afford her, that were she other than she is, she</LINE>
+<LINE>were unhandsome; and being no other but as she is, I</LINE>
+<LINE>do not like her.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>CLAUDIO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Thou thinkest I am in sport: I pray thee tell me</LINE>
+<LINE>truly how thou likest her.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Would you buy her, that you inquire after her?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>CLAUDIO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Can the world buy such a jewel?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Yea, and a case to put it into. But speak you this</LINE>
+<LINE>with a sad brow? or do you play the flouting Jack,</LINE>
+<LINE>to tell us Cupid is a good hare-finder and Vulcan a</LINE>
+<LINE>rare carpenter? Come, in what key shall a man take</LINE>
+<LINE>you, to go in the song?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>CLAUDIO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>In mine eye she is the sweetest lady that ever I</LINE>
+<LINE>looked on.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I can see yet without spectacles and I see no such</LINE>
+<LINE>matter: there's her cousin, an she were not</LINE>
+<LINE>possessed with a fury, exceeds her as much in beauty</LINE>
+<LINE>as the first of May doth the last of December. But I</LINE>
+<LINE>hope you have no intent to turn husband, have you?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>CLAUDIO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I would scarce trust myself, though I had sworn the</LINE>
+<LINE>contrary, if Hero would be my wife.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Is't come to this? In faith, hath not the world</LINE>
+<LINE>one man but he will wear his cap with suspicion?</LINE>
+<LINE>Shall I never see a bachelor of three-score again?</LINE>
+<LINE>Go to, i' faith; an thou wilt needs thrust thy neck</LINE>
+<LINE>into a yoke, wear the print of it and sigh away</LINE>
+<LINE>Sundays. Look Don Pedro is returned to seek you.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+
+<STAGEDIR>Re-enter DON PEDRO</STAGEDIR>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>DON PEDRO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>What secret hath held you here, that you followed</LINE>
+<LINE>not to Leonato's?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I would your grace would constrain me to tell.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>DON PEDRO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I charge thee on thy allegiance.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>You hear, Count Claudio: I can be secret as a dumb</LINE>
+<LINE>man; I would have you think so; but, on my</LINE>
+<LINE>allegiance, mark you this, on my allegiance. He is</LINE>
+<LINE>in love. With who? now that is your grace's part.</LINE>
+<LINE>Mark how short his answer is;--With Hero, Leonato's</LINE>
+<LINE>short daughter.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>CLAUDIO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>If this were so, so were it uttered.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Like the old tale, my lord: 'it is not so, nor</LINE>
+<LINE>'twas not so, but, indeed, God forbid it should be</LINE>
+<LINE>so.'</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>CLAUDIO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>If my passion change not shortly, God forbid it</LINE>
+<LINE>should be otherwise.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>DON PEDRO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Amen, if you love her; for the lady is very well worthy.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>CLAUDIO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>You speak this to fetch me in, my lord.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>DON PEDRO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>By my troth, I speak my thought.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>CLAUDIO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>And, in faith, my lord, I spoke mine.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>And, by my two faiths and troths, my lord, I spoke mine.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>CLAUDIO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>That I love her, I feel.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>DON PEDRO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>That she is worthy, I know.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>That I neither feel how she should be loved nor</LINE>
+<LINE>know how she should be worthy, is the opinion that</LINE>
+<LINE>fire cannot melt out of me: I will die in it at the stake.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>DON PEDRO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Thou wast ever an obstinate heretic in the despite</LINE>
+<LINE>of beauty.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>CLAUDIO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>And never could maintain his part but in the force</LINE>
+<LINE>of his will.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>That a woman conceived me, I thank her; that she</LINE>
+<LINE>brought me up, I likewise give her most humble</LINE>
+<LINE>thanks: but that I will have a recheat winded in my</LINE>
+<LINE>forehead, or hang my bugle in an invisible baldrick,</LINE>
+<LINE>all women shall pardon me. Because I will not do</LINE>
+<LINE>them the wrong to mistrust any, I will do myself the</LINE>
+<LINE>right to trust none; and the fine is, for the which</LINE>
+<LINE>I may go the finer, I will live a bachelor.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>DON PEDRO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I shall see thee, ere I die, look pale with love.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>With anger, with sickness, or with hunger, my lord,</LINE>
+<LINE>not with love: prove that ever I lose more blood</LINE>
+<LINE>with love than I will get again with drinking, pick</LINE>
+<LINE>out mine eyes with a ballad-maker's pen and hang me</LINE>
+<LINE>up at the door of a brothel-house for the sign of</LINE>
+<LINE>blind Cupid.</LINE>

+<LINE>O, my lord,</LINE>
+<LINE>When you went onward on this ended action,</LINE>
+<LINE>I look'd upon her with a soldier's eye,</LINE>
+<LINE>That liked, but had a rougher task in hand</LINE>
+<LINE>Than to drive liking to the name of love:</LINE>
+<LINE>But now I am return'd and that war-thoughts</LINE>

+<SPEAKER>LEONATO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Are they good?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>ANTONIO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>As the event stamps them: but they have a good</LINE>
+<LINE>cover; they show well outward. The prince and Count</LINE>
+<LINE>Claudio, walking in a thick-pleached alley in mine</LINE>
+<LINE>orchard, were thus much overheard by a man of mine:</LINE>
+<LINE>the prince discovered to Claudio that he loved my</LINE>
+<LINE>niece your daughter and meant to acknowledge it</LINE>
+<LINE>this night in a dance: and if he found her</LINE>
+<LINE>accordant, he meant to take the present time by the</LINE>
+<LINE>top and instantly break with you of it.</LINE>

+<LINE>Hath the fellow any wit that told you this?</LINE>

+<LINE>A good sharp fellow: I will send for him; and</LINE>
+<LINE>question him yourself.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>LEONATO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>No, no; we will hold it as a dream till it appear</LINE>

+<LINE>that she may be the better prepared for an answer,</LINE>
+<LINE>if peradventure this be true. Go you and tell her of it.</LINE>

+<LINE>Cousins, you know what you have to do. O, I cry you</LINE>

+<LINE>What the good-year, my lord! why are you thus out</LINE>

+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>DON JOHN</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>There is no measure in the occasion that breeds;</LINE>

+<SPEAKER>DON JOHN</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I wonder that thou, being, as thou sayest thou art,</LINE>
+<LINE>born under Saturn, goest about to apply a moral</LINE>
+<LINE>medicine to a mortifying mischief. I cannot hide</LINE>
+<LINE>what I am: I must be sad when I have cause and smile</LINE>
+<LINE>at no man's jests, eat when I have stomach and wait</LINE>
+<LINE>for no man's leisure, sleep when I am drowsy and</LINE>
+<LINE>tend on no man's business, laugh when I am merry and</LINE>
+<LINE>claw no man in his humour.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>CONRADE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Yea, but you must not make the full show of this</LINE>
+<LINE>till you may do it without controlment. You have of</LINE>
+<LINE>late stood out against your brother, and he hath</LINE>
+<LINE>ta'en you newly into his grace; where it is</LINE>
+<LINE>impossible you should take true root but by the</LINE>
+<LINE>fair weather that you make yourself: it is needful</LINE>
+<LINE>that you frame the season for your own harvest.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>DON JOHN</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I had rather be a canker in a hedge than a rose in</LINE>
+<LINE>his grace, and it better fits my blood to be</LINE>
+<LINE>disdained of all than to fashion a carriage to rob</LINE>
+<LINE>love from any: in this, though I cannot be said to</LINE>
+<LINE>be a flattering honest man, it must not be denied</LINE>
+<LINE>but I am a plain-dealing villain. I am trusted with</LINE>
+<LINE>a muzzle and enfranchised with a clog; therefore I</LINE>
+<LINE>have decreed not to sing in my cage. If I had my</LINE>
+<LINE>mouth, I would bite; if I had my liberty, I would do</LINE>
+<LINE>my liking: in the meantime let me be that I am and</LINE>
+<LINE>seek not to alter me.</LINE>

+<LINE>He were an excellent man that were made just in the</LINE>

+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>With a good leg and a good foot, uncle, and money</LINE>

+<LINE>In faith, she's too curst.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Too curst is more than curst: I shall lessen God's</LINE>
+<LINE>sending that way; for it is said, 'God sends a curst</LINE>
+<LINE>cow short horns;' but to a cow too curst he sends none.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>LEONATO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>So, by being too curst, God will send you no horns.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Just, if he send me no husband; for the which</LINE>
+<LINE>blessing I am at him upon my knees every morning and</LINE>
+<LINE>evening. Lord, I could not endure a husband with a</LINE>
+<LINE>beard on his face: I had rather lie in the woollen.</LINE>

+<SPEAKER>LEONATO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>You may light on a husband that hath no beard.</LINE>

+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>What should I do with him? dress him in my apparel</LINE>
+<LINE>and make him my waiting-gentlewoman? He that hath a</LINE>
+<LINE>beard is more than a youth, and he that hath no</LINE>
+<LINE>beard is less than a man: and he that is more than</LINE>
+<LINE>a youth is not for me, and he that is less than a</LINE>
+<LINE>man, I am not for him: therefore, I will even take</LINE>
+<LINE>sixpence in earnest of the bear-ward, and lead his</LINE>
+<LINE>apes into hell.</LINE>

+<SPEAKER>LEONATO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Well, then, go you into hell?</LINE>

+<LINE>me, like an old cuckold, with horns on his head, and</LINE>
+<LINE>say 'Get you to heaven, Beatrice, get you to</LINE>
+<LINE>heaven; here's no place for you maids:' so deliver</LINE>
+<LINE>I up my apes, and away to Saint Peter for the</LINE>

+<LINE>Not till God make men of some other metal than</LINE>

+<LINE>an account of her life to a clod of wayward marl?</LINE>
+<LINE>No, uncle, I'll none: Adam's sons are my brethren;</LINE>

+<LINE>The fault will be in the music, cousin, if you be</LINE>
+<LINE>not wooed in good time: if the prince be too</LINE>
+<LINE>important, tell him there is measure in every thing</LINE>
+<LINE>and so dance out the answer. For, hear me, Hero:</LINE>
+<LINE>wooing, wedding, and repenting, is as a Scotch jig,</LINE>
+<LINE>a measure, and a cinque pace: the first suit is hot</LINE>
+<LINE>and hasty, like a Scotch jig, and full as</LINE>
+<LINE>fantastical; the wedding, mannerly-modest, as a</LINE>
+<LINE>measure, full of state and ancientry; and then comes</LINE>
+<LINE>repentance and, with his bad legs, falls into the</LINE>
+<LINE>cinque pace faster and faster, till he sink into his grave.</LINE>

+<LINE>myself, that I was the prince's jester, that I was</LINE>
+<LINE>duller than a great thaw; huddling jest upon jest</LINE>
+<LINE>with such impossible conveyance upon me that I stood</LINE>
+<LINE>like a man at a mark, with a whole army shooting at</LINE>

+<LINE>if her breath were as terrible as her terminations,</LINE>
+<LINE>there were no living near her; she would infect to</LINE>
+<LINE>the north star. I would not marry her, though she</LINE>

+<LINE>Any bar, any cross, any impediment will be</LINE>
+<LINE>medicinable to me: I am sick in displeasure to him,</LINE>

+<SPEAKER>DON JOHN</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Show me briefly how.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BORACHIO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I think I told your lordship a year since, how much</LINE>
+<LINE>I am in the favour of Margaret, the waiting</LINE>
+<LINE>gentlewoman to Hero.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>DON JOHN</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I remember.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BORACHIO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I can, at any unseasonable instant of the night,</LINE>
+<LINE>appoint her to look out at her lady's chamber window.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>DON JOHN</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>What life is in that, to be the death of this marriage?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BORACHIO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>The poison of that lies in you to temper. Go you to</LINE>
+<LINE>the prince your brother; spare not to tell him that</LINE>
+<LINE>he hath wronged his honour in marrying the renowned</LINE>
+<LINE>Claudio--whose estimation do you mightily hold</LINE>
+<LINE>up--to a contaminated stale, such a one as Hero.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>DON JOHN</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>What proof shall I make of that?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BORACHIO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Proof enough to misuse the prince, to vex Claudio,</LINE>
+<LINE>to undo Hero and kill Leonato. Look you for any</LINE>
+<LINE>other issue?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>DON JOHN</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Only to despite them, I will endeavour any thing.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BORACHIO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Go, then; find me a meet hour to draw Don Pedro and</LINE>
+<LINE>the Count Claudio alone: tell them that you know</LINE>
+<LINE>that Hero loves me; intend a kind of zeal both to the</LINE>
+<LINE>prince and Claudio, as,--in love of your brother's</LINE>
+<LINE>honour, who hath made this match, and his friend's</LINE>
+<LINE>reputation, who is thus like to be cozened with the</LINE>
+<LINE>semblance of a maid,--that you have discovered</LINE>
+<LINE>thus. They will scarcely believe this without trial:</LINE>
+<LINE>offer them instances; which shall bear no less</LINE>
+<LINE>likelihood than to see me at her chamber-window,</LINE>
+<LINE>hear me call Margaret Hero, hear Margaret term me</LINE>
+<LINE>Claudio; and bring them to see this the very night</LINE>
+<LINE>before the intended wedding,--for in the meantime I</LINE>
+<LINE>will so fashion the matter that Hero shall be</LINE>
+<LINE>absent,--and there shall appear such seeming truth</LINE>
+<LINE>of Hero's disloyalty that jealousy shall be called</LINE>
+<LINE>assurance and all the preparation overthrown.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>DON JOHN</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Grow this to what adverse issue it can, I will put</LINE>
+<LINE>it in practise. Be cunning in the working this, and</LINE>
+<LINE>thy fee is a thousand ducats.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>

+<LINE>I do much wonder that one man, seeing how much</LINE>
+<LINE>another man is a fool when he dedicates his</LINE>
+<LINE>behaviors to love, will, after he hath laughed at</LINE>
+<LINE>such shallow follies in others, become the argument</LINE>
+<LINE>of his own scorn by failing in love: and such a man</LINE>
+<LINE>is Claudio. I have known when there was no music</LINE>
+<LINE>with him but the drum and the fife; and now had he</LINE>
+<LINE>rather hear the tabour and the pipe: I have known</LINE>
+<LINE>when he would have walked ten mile a-foot to see a</LINE>
+<LINE>good armour; and now will he lie ten nights awake,</LINE>
+<LINE>carving the fashion of a new doublet. He was wont to</LINE>
+<LINE>speak plain and to the purpose, like an honest man</LINE>
+<LINE>and a soldier; and now is he turned orthography; his</LINE>
+<LINE>words are a very fantastical banquet, just so many</LINE>
+<LINE>strange dishes. May I be so converted and see with</LINE>
+<LINE>these eyes? I cannot tell; I think not: I will not</LINE>
+<LINE>be sworn, but love may transform me to an oyster; but</LINE>
+<LINE>I'll take my oath on it, till he have made an oyster</LINE>
+<LINE>of me, he shall never make me such a fool. One woman</LINE>
+<LINE>is fair, yet I am well; another is wise, yet I am</LINE>
+<LINE>well; another virtuous, yet I am well; but till all</LINE>
+<LINE>graces be in one woman, one woman shall not come in</LINE>
+<LINE>my grace. Rich she shall be, that's certain; wise,</LINE>
+<LINE>or I'll none; virtuous, or I'll never cheapen her;</LINE>
+<LINE>fair, or I'll   never look on her; mild, or come not</LINE>
+<LINE>near me; noble, or not I for an angel; of good</LINE>

+<LINE>That.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>LEONATO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>O, she tore the letter into a thousand halfpence;</LINE>
+<LINE>railed at herself, that she should be so immodest</LINE>
+<LINE>to write to one that she knew would flout her; 'I</LINE>
+<LINE>measure him,' says she, 'by my own spirit; for I</LINE>
+<LINE>should flout him, if he writ to me; yea, though I</LINE>
+<LINE>love him, I should.'</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>

+<LINE>sweet Benedick! God give me patience!'</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>LEONATO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>She doth indeed; my daughter says so: and the</LINE>

+<LINE>why, it must be requited. I hear how I am censured:</LINE>
+<LINE>they say I will bear myself proudly, if I perceive</LINE>
+<LINE>the love come from her; they say too that she will</LINE>
+<LINE>rather die than give any sign of affection. I did</LINE>
+<LINE>never think to marry: I must not seem proud: happy</LINE>
+<LINE>are they that hear their detractions and can put</LINE>
+<LINE>them to mending. They say the lady is fair; 'tis a</LINE>
+<LINE>truth, I can bear them witness; and virtuous; 'tis</LINE>
+<LINE>so, I cannot reprove it; and wise, but for loving</LINE>
+<LINE>me; by my troth, it is no addition to her wit, nor</LINE>
+<LINE>no great argument of her folly, for I will be</LINE>
+<LINE>horribly in love with her. I may chance have some</LINE>
+<LINE>odd quirks and remnants of wit broken on me,</LINE>
+<LINE>because I have railed so long against marriage: but</LINE>
+<LINE>doth not the appetite alter? a man loves the meat</LINE>
+<LINE>in his youth that he cannot endure in his age.</LINE>
+<LINE>Shall quips and sentences and these paper bullets of</LINE>
+<LINE>the brain awe a man from the career of his humour?</LINE>
+<LINE>No, the world must be peopled. When I said I would</LINE>
+<LINE>die a bachelor, I did not think I should live till I</LINE>
+<LINE>were married. Here comes Beatrice. By this day!</LINE>
+<LINE>she's a fair lady: I do spy some marks of love in</LINE>
+<LINE>her.</LINE>

+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Against my will I am sent to bid you come in to dinner.</LINE>

+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Fair Beatrice, I thank you for your pains.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I took no more pains for those thanks than you take</LINE>
+<LINE>pains to thank me: if it had been painful, I would</LINE>
+<LINE>not have come.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>You take pleasure then in the message?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>BEATRICE</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Yea, just so much as you may take upon a knife's</LINE>
+<LINE>point and choke a daw withal. You have no stomach,</LINE>
+<LINE>signior: fare you well.</LINE>

+

+<SPEAKER>BENEDICK</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Ha! 'Against my will I am sent to bid you come in</LINE>
+<LINE>to dinner;' there's a double meaning in that 'I took</LINE>
+<LINE>no more pains for those thanks than you took pains</LINE>
+<LINE>to thank me.' that's as much as to say, Any pains</LINE>
+<LINE>that I take for you is as easy as thanks. If I do</LINE>
+<LINE>not take pity of her, I am a villain; if I do not</LINE>
+<LINE>love her, I am a Jew. I will go get her picture.</LINE>

+<STAGEDIR>Enter HERO, MARGARET, and URSULA</STAGEDIR>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>HERO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Good Margaret, run thee to the parlor;</LINE>
+<LINE>There shalt thou find my cousin Beatrice</LINE>
+<LINE>Proposing with the prince and Claudio:</LINE>
+<LINE>Whisper her ear and tell her, I and Ursula</LINE>
+<LINE>Walk in the orchard and our whole discourse</LINE>
+<LINE>Is all of her; say that thou overheard'st us;</LINE>
+<LINE>And bid her steal into the pleached bower,</LINE>
+<LINE>Where honeysuckles, ripen'd by the sun,</LINE>
+<LINE>Forbid the sun to enter, like favourites,</LINE>
+<LINE>Made proud by princes, that advance their pride</LINE>
+<LINE>Against that power that bred it: there will she hide her,</LINE>
+<LINE>To listen our purpose.  This is thy office;</LINE>
+<LINE>Bear thee well in it and leave us alone.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>MARGARET</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I'll make her come, I warrant you, presently.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+
+<STAGEDIR>Exit</STAGEDIR>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>HERO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Now, Ursula, when Beatrice doth come,</LINE>
+<LINE>As we do trace this alley up and down,</LINE>
+<LINE>Our talk must only be of Benedick.</LINE>
+<LINE>When I do name him, let it be thy part</LINE>
+<LINE>To praise him more than ever man did merit:</LINE>
+<LINE>My talk to thee must be how Benedick</LINE>
+<LINE>Is sick in love with Beatrice. Of this matter</LINE>
+<LINE>Is little Cupid's crafty arrow made,</LINE>
+<LINE>That only wounds by hearsay.</LINE>
+<STAGEDIR>Enter BEATRICE, behind</STAGEDIR>
+<LINE>Now begin;</LINE>
+<LINE>For look where Beatrice, like a lapwing, runs</LINE>
+<LINE>Close by the ground, to hear our conference.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>URSULA</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>The pleasant'st angling is to see the fish</LINE>
+<LINE>Cut with her golden oars the silver stream,</LINE>
+<LINE>And greedily devour the treacherous bait:</LINE>
+<LINE>So angle we for Beatrice; who even now</LINE>
+<LINE>Is couched in the woodbine coverture.</LINE>
+<LINE>Fear you not my part of the dialogue.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>HERO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Then go we near her, that her ear lose nothing</LINE>
+<LINE>Of the false sweet bait that we lay for it.</LINE>
+<STAGEDIR>Approaching the bower</STAGEDIR>
+<LINE>No, truly, Ursula, she is too disdainful;</LINE>
+<LINE>I know her spirits are as coy and wild</LINE>
+<LINE>As haggerds of the rock.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>URSULA</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>But are you sure</LINE>
+<LINE>That Benedick loves Beatrice so entirely?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>HERO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>So says the prince and my new-trothed lord.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>URSULA</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>And did they bid you tell her of it, madam?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>HERO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>They did entreat me to acquaint her of it;</LINE>
+<LINE>But I persuaded them, if they loved Benedick,</LINE>
+<LINE>To wish him wrestle with affection,</LINE>
+<LINE>And never to let Beatrice know of it.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>URSULA</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Why did you so? Doth not the gentleman</LINE>
+<LINE>Deserve as full as fortunate a bed</LINE>
+<LINE>As ever Beatrice shall couch upon?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>HERO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>O god of love! I know he doth deserve</LINE>
+<LINE>As much as may be yielded to a man:</LINE>
+<LINE>But Nature never framed a woman's heart</LINE>
+<LINE>Of prouder stuff than that of Beatrice;</LINE>
+<LINE>Disdain and scorn ride sparkling in her eyes,</LINE>
+<LINE>Misprising what they look on, and her wit</LINE>
+<LINE>Values itself so highly that to her</LINE>
+<LINE>All matter else seems weak: she cannot love,</LINE>
+<LINE>Nor take no shape nor project of affection,</LINE>
+<LINE>She is so self-endeared.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>URSULA</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Sure, I think so;</LINE>
+<LINE>And therefore certainly it were not good</LINE>
+<LINE>She knew his love, lest she make sport at it.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>HERO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Why, you speak truth. I never yet saw man,</LINE>
+<LINE>How wise, how noble, young, how rarely featured,</LINE>
+<LINE>But she would spell him backward: if fair-faced,</LINE>
+<LINE>She would swear the gentleman should be her sister;</LINE>
+<LINE>If black, why, Nature, drawing of an antique,</LINE>
+<LINE>Made a foul blot; if tall, a lance ill-headed;</LINE>
+<LINE>If low, an agate very vilely cut;</LINE>
+<LINE>If speaking, why, a vane blown with all winds;</LINE>
+<LINE>If silent, why, a block moved with none.</LINE>
+<LINE>So turns she every man the wrong side out</LINE>
+<LINE>And never gives to truth and virtue that</LINE>
+<LINE>Which simpleness and merit purchaseth.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>URSULA</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Sure, sure, such carping is not commendable.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>HERO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>No, not to be so odd and from all fashions</LINE>
+<LINE>As Beatrice is, cannot be commendable:</LINE>
+<LINE>But who dare tell her so? If I should speak,</LINE>
+<LINE>She would mock me into air; O, she would laugh me</LINE>
+<LINE>Out of myself, press me to death with wit.</LINE>
+<LINE>Therefore let Benedick, like cover'd fire,</LINE>
+<LINE>Consume away in sighs, waste inwardly:</LINE>
+<LINE>It were a better death than die with mocks,</LINE>
+<LINE>Which is as bad as die with tickling.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>URSULA</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Yet tell her of it: hear what she will say.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>HERO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>No; rather I will go to Benedick</LINE>
+<LINE>And counsel him to fight against his passion.</LINE>
+<LINE>And, truly, I'll devise some honest slanders</LINE>
+<LINE>To stain my cousin with: one doth not know</LINE>
+<LINE>How much an ill word may empoison liking.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>URSULA</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>O, do not do your cousin such a wrong.</LINE>
+<LINE>She cannot be so much without true judgment--</LINE>
+<LINE>Having so swift and excellent a wit</LINE>
+<LINE>As she is prized to have--as to refuse</LINE>
+<LINE>So rare a gentleman as Signior Benedick.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>HERO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>He is the only man of Italy.</LINE>
+<LINE>Always excepted my dear Claudio.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>URSULA</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>I pray you, be not angry with me, madam,</LINE>
+<LINE>Speaking my fancy: Signior Benedick,</LINE>
+<LINE>For shape, for bearing, argument and valour,</LINE>
+<LINE>Goes foremost in report through Italy.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>HERO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Indeed, he hath an excellent good name.</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>URSULA</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>His excellence did earn it, ere he had it.</LINE>
+<LINE>When are you married, madam?</LINE>
+</SPEECH>
+
+<SPEECH>
+<SPEAKER>HERO</SPEAKER>
+<LINE>Why, every day, to-morrow. Come, go in:</LINE>
+<LINE>I'll show thee some attires, and have thy counsel</LINE>
