Enter CLOTEN and two Lords First Lord       Sir, I would advise you to shift a shirt; the       violence of action hath made you reek as a       sacrifice: where air comes out, air comes in:       there's none abroad so wholesome as that you vent. CLOTEN 5     If my shirt were bloody, then to shift it. Have I hurt him? Second Lord       (Aside) No, 'faith; not so much as his patience. First Lord       Hurt him! his body's a passable carcass, if he be       not hurt: it is a thoroughfare for steel, if it be not hurt. Second Lord       (Aside) His steel was in debt; it went o' the 10    backside the town. CLOTEN       The villain would not stand me. Second Lord       (Aside) No; but he fled forward still, toward your face. First Lord       Stand you! You have land enough of your own: but       he added to your having; gave you some ground. Second Lord 15    (Aside) As many inches as you have oceans. Puppies! CLOTEN       I would they had not come between us. Second Lord       (Aside) So would I, till you had measured how long       a fool you were upon the ground. CLOTEN       And that she should love this fellow and refuse me! Second Lord 20    (Aside) If it be a sin to make a true election, she       is damned. First Lord       Sir, as I told you always, her beauty and her brain       go not together: she's a good sign, but I have seen       small reflection of her wit. Second Lord 25    (Aside) She shines not upon fools, lest the       reflection should hurt her. CLOTEN       Come, I'll to my chamber. Would there had been some       hurt done! Second Lord       (Aside) I wish not so; unless it had been the fall 30    of an ass, which is no great hurt. CLOTEN       You'll go with us? First Lord       I'll attend your lordship. CLOTEN       Nay, come, let's go together. Second Lord       Well, my lord. Exeunt Return to top of page ... or ... Go to next scene
