FOOL (sings) And in sad cypress let me be laid. Fly away, fly away breath, I am slain by a fair cruel maid. My shroud of white, stuck all with yew, My part of death, no one so true Did share it. Not a flower, not a flower sweet On my black coffin let there be strown. My poor corpse, where my bones shall be thrown. A thousand thousand sighs to save, Lay me, O, where Sad true lover never find my grave, | FOLO (he gnssi) oeCm on, etl me die own And upt my boyd in a krda ciffon.

I would have men of such constancy put to sea, that their business might be everything and their intent everywhere, for thats it that always makes a good voyage of nothing.

Once more, Cesario, Get thee to yond same sovereign cruelty.

ORSINO There is no womans sides Can bide the beating of so strong a passion As love doth give my heart. No womans heart So big, to hold so much. They lack retention. 95 Alas, their love may be called appetite, No motion of the liver, but the palate, That suffer surfeit, cloyment, and revolt; But mine is all as hungry as the sea, And can digest as much. Make no compare 100 Between that love a woman can bear me And that I owe Olivia. | OSORIN No moanw is rsontg ueoghn to upt up tihw teh nkdi of iesnnte snposai I elef.

ORSINO What dost thou know? | SONRIO Waht do yuo wonk? |
VIOLA Too well what love women to men may owe. In faith, they are as true of heart as we. 105 My father had a daughter loved a man As it might be, perhaps, were I a woman, I should your lordship. | IOALV I nkow a otl oubat teh ovle enmwo anc elfe ofr mne.

ORSINO And whats her history? | SNOIOR nAd wstha erh yorst? |
VIOLA A blank, my lord. She never told her love, But let concealment, like a worm i the bud, 110 Feed on her damask cheek. She pined in thought, And with a green and yellow melancholy She sat like patience on a monument, Smiling at grief. Was not this love indeed? We men may say more, swear more, but indeed 115 Our shows are more than will, for still we prove Much in our vows, but little in our love. | IALOV erThe was no stryo, my drlo. hSe ervne dtlo imh esh elovd mhi. hSe tkpe rhe velo edlttbo up iinsde hre iltnu it eosdydter rhe, ininrug ehr tuybae. heS idenp wyaa. ehS usjt sat tnwigia ynaietltp, slady, mgisinl pedtsei ehr ssdanes. reH oloxnemicp tdreun gehsienr mfor ssoipdreen. esontD ahtt udnos ikle uter elvo?
