Two Gentlemen of Verona
Contents:
Scene 2
Verona. Julia’s house.
Enter PROTEUS and JULIA
PROTEUSHave patience, gentle Julia.
JULIAI must, where is no remedy.
PROTEUSWhen possibly I can, I will return.
JULIAIf you turn not, you will return the sooner.
Keep this remembrance for thy Julia’s sake.
Giving a ring
PROTEUSWhy then, we’ll make exchange; here, take you this.
JULIAAnd seal the bargain with a holy kiss.
PROTEUSHere is my hand for my true constancy;
And when that hour o’erslips me in the day
Wherein I sigh not, Julia, for thy sake,
The next ensuing hour some foul mischance
Torment me for my love’s forgetfulness!
My father stays my coming; answer not;
The tide is now: nay, not thy tide of tears;
That tide will stay me longer than I should.
Julia, farewell!
Exit JULIAWhat, gone without a word?
Ay, so true love should do: it cannot speak;
For truth hath better deeds than words to grace it.
Enter PANTHINO
PANTHINOSir Proteus, you are stay’d for.
PROTEUSGo; I come, I come.
Alas! this parting strikes poor lovers dumb.
Exeunt
