 Nunnery scene III. i. 89-163 -- 1743-1817 1743 ...Nimph in thy orizons 1744 Be all my sinnes remembred. 1745 Oph. Good my Lord, 1746 How dooes your honour for this many a day? 1747 Ham. I humbly thanke you <: well, well,> well. 1748 Oph. My Lord, I haue remembrances of yours 1749 That I haue longed long to redeliuer, 1750 I pray you now receiue them. 1751 Ham. No, {not I} <no>, I neuer gaue you ought. 1752 Oph. My honor'd Lord, {you} <I> know right well you did, 1753 And with them words of so sweet breath composd 1754 As made {these} <the> things more rich, {their} <then> perfume {lost,} <left:> 1755 Take these againe, for to the noble mind 1756 Rich gifts wax poore when giuers prooue vnkind, 1757 There my Lord. 1758 Ham. Ha, ha, are you honest. 1759 Oph. My Lord. 1760 Ham. Are you faire? 1761 Oph. What meanes your Lordship? 1762-3 Ham. That if you be honest & faire, {you} <your Honesty> | should admit 1763 no discourse to your beautie. 1764 Oph. Could beauty my Lord haue better comerse 1765 Then {with} <your> honestie? 1766-7 Ham. I truly, for the power of beautie will sooner | transforme ho- 1767-8 nestie from what it is to a bawde, then the | force of honestie can trans- 1768-9 late beautie into his likenes, | this was sometime a paradox, but now the 1769-70 time giues it | proofe, I did loue you once. 1771 Oph. Indeed my Lord you made me belieue so. 1772-3 Ham. You should not haue beleeu'd me, for vertue cannot so 1773-4 {euocutat} <innocculate> our old stock, but we shall relish of it, I loued you not. 1735 {G3} Oph. I was the more deceiued. 1776-7 Ham. Get thee {a Nunry} <to a Nunnerie>, why would'st thou be a breeder of sin- 1777-8 ners, I am my selfe indifferent honest, but yet I could accuse mee of 1778-9 such things, that it were {better} <bet-| ter> my Mother had not borne mee: I am 1779-80 very proude, {reuengefull} <re-| uengefull>, ambitious, with more offences at my beck, 1781-2 then I haue thoughts to put them in, imagination to giue them shape, 1782-3 <Oo5v> or time to act them in: what should such | fellowes as I do crauling be- 1783-4 tweene {earth and heauen,} <Heauen and Earth.>| wee are arrant knaues <all>, beleeue none of vs, 1784-5 goe thy | waies to a {Nunry} <Nunnery>. Where's your father? 1786 Oph. At home my Lord. 1787 Ham. Let the doores be shut vpon him, 1787-8 That he may | play the foole no {where} <way,> but in's owne house, 1788 Farewell. 1789 Oph. O helpe him you sweet heauens. 1790-1 Ham. If thou doost marry, Ile giue thee this plague | for thy dow- 1791-2 rie, be thou as chast as yce, as pure as snow, | thou shalt not escape ca- 1792-3 lumny; get thee to a {Nunry} <Nunnery>, | <Go,> farewell. Or if thou wilt needes marry, 1793-4 marry a foole, | for wise men knowe well enough what monsters you 1795-6 make of them: to a {Nunry} <Nunnery> goe, and quickly to, {farewell} <Far-| well>. 1797 Oph. <O> Heauenly powers restore him. 1798-9 Ham.

Exit <Hamlet>. 1806 Oph. O what a noble mind is heere orethrowne! 1807 The Courtiers, souldiers, schollers, eye, tongue, sword, 1808 {Th'expectation,} <Th'expectansie> and Rose of the faire state, 1809 The glasse of fashion, and the mould of forme, 1810 Th'obseru'd of all obseruers, quite quite downe, 1811 {And} <Haue> I of Ladies most deiect and wretched, 1812 That suckt the honny of his {musickt} <Musicke> vowes; 1813 Now see {what} <that> noble and most soueraigne reason 1814 Like sweet bells iangled out of {time} <tune>, and harsh, 1815 That vnmatcht forme, and {stature} <Feature> of blowne youth 1816 Blasted with extacie, ô woe is mee 1817 T'haue seene what I haue seene, see what I see. {Exit.} |
