Away! By Jupiter,įare thee well, King: sith thus thou wilt appear,įreedom lives hence, and banishment is here. Thy banish'd trunk be found in our dominions, Upon our kingdom: if, on the next day following, To shield thee from disasters of the world Which nor our nature, nor our place can bear,įive days we do allot thee for provision, To come betwixt our sentences and our power, Which we durst never yet, and with strain'd pride

Since thou hast sought to make us break our vows, Hear me, recreant! on thine allegiance, hear me! Or, whilst I can vent clamour from my throat, To wage against thine enemies ne'er fear to lose it, Nor are those empty-hearted, whose low sounds Thy youngest daughter does not love thee least This hideous rashness: answer my life my judgement, When power to flattery bows? To plainness honour's bound Think'st thou that duty shall have dread to speak, The region of my heart: be Kent unmannerly Let it fall rather, though the fork invade The bow is bent and drawn make from the shaft. Lov'd as my father, as my master follow'd,Īs my great patron thought on in my prayers. The name, and all the addition to a king the sway,īeloved sons, be yours which to confirm, Let pride, which she calls plainness, marry her. With my two daughters' dowers digest this third: Her father's heart from her! Call France. I lov'd her most, and thought to set my rest The barbarous Scythian,īe as well neighbour'd, pitied, and reliev'd,Ĭome not between the dragon and his wrath. Let it be so, thy truth then be thy dower: Sure I shall never marry like my sisters, Half my love with him, half my care and duty: That lord whose hand must take my plight shall carry They love you all? Haply, when I shall wed, Return those duties back as are right fit, How, how, Cordelia? Mend your speech a little, My heart into my mouth: I love your majesty Nothing will come of nothing: speak again. Strive to be interess'd what can you say to drawĪ third more opulent than your sisters? Speak. Than that conferr'd on Goneril.-Now, our joy,Īlthough the last and least to whose young love Remain this ample third of our fair kingdom

Which the most precious square of sense possesses,Īnd yet not so since, I am sure, my love's Sir, I am made of the self mettle as my sister,Īnd prize me at her worth. Our dearest Regan, wife of Cornwall? Speak. We make thee lady: to thine and Albany's issueīe this perpetual.-What says our second daughter, With plenteous rivers and wide-skirted meads, With shadowy forests and with champains rich'd, Of all these bounds, even from this line to this, What shall Cordelia speak? Love, and be silent. No less than life, with grace, health, beauty, honour Īs much as child e'er lov'd, or father found Ī love that makes breath poor and speech unable Sir, I love you more than word can wield the matter ĭearer than eyesight, space, and liberty Where nature doth with merit challenge.-Goneril, Which of you shall we say doth love us most? Since now we will divest us both of rule, Long in our court have made their amorous sojourn,Īnd here are to be answer'd. Great rivals in our youngest daughter's love, Our daughters' several dowers, that future strife We have this hour a constant will to publish Our son of Cornwall,Īnd you, our no less loving son of Albany, To shake all cares and business from our age Ĭonferring them on younger strengths, while we In three our kingdom: and 'tis our fast intent Meantime we shall express our darker purpose.

I cannot wish the fault undone, the issue of it being so proper.īut I have a son, sir, by order of law, some year elder than this, who yet is no dearer in my account: though this knave came something saucily to the world before he was sent for, yet was his mother fair there was good sport at his making, and the whoreson must be acknowledged. Sir, this young fellow's mother could whereupon she grew round-wombed, and had indeed, sir, a son for her cradle ere she had a husband for her bed. His breeding, sir, hath been at my charge: I have so often blush'd to acknowledge him that now I am braz'd to't. It did always seem so to us but now, in the division of the kingdom, it appears not which of the Dukes he values most, for qualities are so weighed that curiosity in neither can make choice of either's moiety. I thought the King had more affected the Duke of Albany than Cornwall. Knights attending on the King, Officers, Messengers, Soldiers and Attendants EDMUND, younger bastard son to Gloucester.
