PROTEUS Have patience, gentle Julia. | PROTEUS Be patient, gentle Julia. |
JULIA I must, where is no remedy. | JULIA I have to be, since there is no way to fix the situation. |
PROTEUS When possibly I can, I will return. | PROTEUS I will return as soon as I can. |
JULIA If you turn not, you will return the sooner. 5 Keep this remembrance for thy Julias sake. | JULIA If youre not unfaithful youll return sooner. Keep this to remember me by, for my sake. She gives him a ring. |
PROTEUS Why, then, well make exchange; here, take you this. | PROTEUS Well, then, well exchange rings. Here, you take this. |
He gives her a ring. | He gives her a ring. |
JULIA And seal the bargain with a holy kiss. | JULIA And we will seal the bargain with a holy kiss. |
They kiss. | They kiss. |
PROTEUS Here is my hand for my true constancy; And when that hour oerslips me in the day 10 Wherein I sigh not, Julia, for thy sake, The next ensuing hour some foul mischance Torment me for my loves forgetfulness! My father stays my coming. Answer not. The tide is nownay, not thy tide of tears; 15 That tide will stay me longer than I should. Julia, farewell! | PROTEUS Here is my hand to show my fidelity. And if an hour in the day passes when I dont sigh when thinking of you, Julia, then may some disaster torment me in the next hour to punish my loves forgetfulness! My father is waiting for me. Dont say anything. The tide is right for me to set outno, not your tide of tears. Those tears will keep me here longer than I should stay. Farewell, Julia! |
Exit JULIA | JULIA exits. |
What, gone without a word? Ay, so true love should do; it cannot speak, For truth hath better deeds than words to grace it. | What, shes gone without saying a word? Yes, thats how it should be with true love. It cannot speak, because truth is best expressed through action, not words. |
Enter PANTHINO | PANTHINO enters. |
PANTHINO 20 Sir Proteus, you are stayed for. | PANTHINO Sir Proteus, everyone is waiting for you. |
PROTEUS Go. I come, I come. Alas! This parting strikes poor lovers dumb. | PROTEUS Go on. Im coming, Im coming. Too bad! This parting has left us poor lovers without words. |
Exeunt | They exit. |
