SEBASTIAN This is the air, that is the glorious sun. This pearl she gave me, I do feel t and see t, And though tis wonder that enwraps me thus, Yet tis not madness. Wheres Antonio, then? 5 I could not find him at the Elephant. Yet there he was, and there I found this credit, That he did range the town to seek me out. His counsel now might do me golden service. For though my soul disputes well with my sense 10 That this may be some error, but no madness, Yet doth this accident and flood of fortune So far exceed all instance, all discourse, That I am ready to distrust mine eyes And wrangle with my reason that persuades me 15 To any other trust but that I am mad Or else the ladys mad. Yet if twere so, She could not sway her house, command her followers, Take and give back affairs and their dispatch With such a smooth, discreet, and stable bearing 20 As I perceive she does. Theres something in t That is deceivable. But here the lady comes. | SBEITAANS hTis is eht ira, sttha teh lgrsioou nsu. I cna fele dan see siht prlea seh evag me.

OLIVIA (to SEBASTIAN) Blame not this haste of mine. If you mean well, Now go with me and with this holy man 25 Into the chantry by. There, before him And underneath that consecrated roof, Plight me the full assurance of your faith, That my most jealous and too doubtful soul May live at peace. He shall conceal it 30 Whiles you are willing it shall come to note, What time we will our celebration keep According to my birth. What do you say? | VIIAOL (to SEBASTIAN) onDt be ayrng twih me for tcinag so yikcqlu.
