He hath known you but three days and already you are no stranger.
Is he inconstant, sir, in his favor?
No.
Believe me.
Here comes the Count.
Cesario!
On your attendance, my Lord; here.
Stand you awhile aloof.
Oh, yes.
[exclamations] Cesario!
- Rah!
I have unclasped to thee the book even of my secret soul.
Therefore, good youth, address thy gait unto her, Be not denied access.
Sure, my noble Lord.
Be clamorous and leap all civil bounds Rather than make unprofited return.
[yells] [exclaims] Oh!
[laughs] [cries] Say I do speak with her, my lord, what then?
O O then unfold the passion of my love.
Surprise her with the discourse of my dear faith.
It shall become thee well to act my woes.
She will attend it better in thy youth.
I think not so, my Lord.
Dear lad, believe it.
For they shall yet belie thy happy years that say thou art a man.
Diana's lip is not more smooth and rubious, thy small pipe and all ia semblative a woman's part.
[clears throat] Prosper well in this and thou shall live as freely as thy Lord to call his fortunes thine.
I'll do my best to woo your lady.
Oh!
