ACT I

       Table of Contents

      SCENE I. Britain. The garden of Cymbeline’s palace.

      Enter two Gentlemen.

      FIRST GENTLEMAN.

       You do not meet a man but frowns; our bloods

       No more obey the heavens than our courtiers

       Still seem as does the King’s.

      SECOND GENTLEMAN.

       But what’s the matter?

      FIRST GENTLEMAN.

       His daughter, and the heir of’s kingdom, whom

       He purpos’d to his wife’s sole son—a widow

       That late he married—hath referr’d herself

       Unto a poor but worthy gentleman. She’s wedded;

       Her husband banish’d; she imprison’d. All

       Is outward sorrow, though I think the King

       Be touch’d at very heart.

      SECOND GENTLEMAN.

       None but the King?

      FIRST GENTLEMAN.

       He that hath lost her too. So is the Queen,

       That most desir’d the match. But not a courtier,

       Although they wear their faces to the bent

       Of the King’s looks, hath a heart that is not

       Glad at the thing they scowl at.

      SECOND GENTLEMAN.

       And why so?

      FIRST GENTLEMAN.

       He that hath miss’d the Princess is a thing

       Too bad for bad report; and he that hath her—

       I mean that married her, alack, good man!

       And therefore banish’d—is a creature such

       As, to seek through the regions of the earth

       For one his like, there would be something failing

       In him that should compare. I do not think

       So fair an outward and such stuff within

       Endows a man but he.

      SECOND GENTLEMAN.

       You speak him far.

      FIRST GENTLEMAN.

       I do extend him, sir, within himself;

       Crush him together rather than unfold

       His measure duly.

      SECOND GENTLEMAN.

       What’s his name and birth?

      FIRST GENTLEMAN.

       I cannot delve him to the root; his father

       Was call’d Sicilius, who did join СКАЧАТЬ
