Deserve as full, as fortunate a bed, As ever Beatrice shall couch upon? Hero. O God of love! I know, he doth deserve As much as may be yielded to a man: But nature never fram'd a woman's heart All matter else seems weak: she cannot love, Urs. Sure, I think so; And therefore, certainly, it were not good Hero. Why, you speak truth: I never yet saw man, If speaking, why, a vane blown with all winds; So turns she every man the wrong side out ; Urs. Sure, sure, such carping is not commendable. Hero. No; not to be so odd, and from all fashions, As Beatrice is, cannot be commendable: But who dare tell her so? If I should speak, She would mock me into air; O, she would laugh me It were a better death than die with mocks; Urs. Yet tell her of it; hear what she will say. And counsel him to fight against his passion: Urs. O, do not do your cousin such a wrong. Always excepted my dear Claudio. Urs. I pray you, be not angry with me, madam, For shape, for bearing, argument, and valour, Hero. Indeed, he hath an excellent good name. Hero. Why, every day; to-morrow: Come, go in ; I'll shew thee some attires; and have thy counsel, Which is the best to furnish me to-morrow. |
