Actus Quintus. Scena Prima.
[Act 5, Scene 1]
Enter a Doctor of Physicke, and a Wayting
Gentlewoman.
Doct.
[1990]
I haue too Nights watch'd with you, but can
perceiue no truth in your report. When was it shee last
walk'd
?
Gent.
Since his Maiesty went into the Field, I haue
seene her rise from her bed, throw her Night‑Gown vp
[1995]
pon her, vnlocke her Closset, take foorth paper, folde it,
write vpon't, read it, afterwards Seale it, and againe re
turne to bed; yet all this while in a most fast sleepe.
Doct.
A great perturbation in Nature, to receyue at
once the benefit of sleep, and do the effects of watching.
[2000]
In this slumbry agitation, besides her walking, and other
actuall performances, what (at any time) haue you heard
her say?
Gent.That Sir, which I will not report after her.Doct.You may to me, and 'tis most meet you should.Gent.
[2005]
Neither to you, nor any one, hauing no witnesse
to confirme my speech.
Enter Lady, with a Taper.
Lo you, heere she comes: This is her very guise, and vp
on my life fast asleepe: obserue her, stand close.
Doct.
How came she by that light?
Gent.
[2010]
Why it stood by her: she ha's light by her con
tinually, 'tis her command.
Doct.
You see her eyes are open.
Gent.
I but their sense are shut.
Doct.What is it she do's now?
[2015]
Looke how she rubbes her hands.Gent.
It is an accustom'd action with her, to seeme
thus washing her hands: I haue knowne her continue in
this a quarter of an houre.
Lad.Yet heere's a spot.Doct.
[2020]
Heark, she speaks, I will set downe what comes
from her, to satisfie my remembrance the more strongly.
La.
Out damned spot: out I say. One: Two: Why
then 'tis time to doo't: Hell is murky. Fye, my Lord, fie,
a Souldier, and affear'd? what need we feare? who knowes
[2025]
it, when none can call our powre to accompt: yet who
would haue thought the olde man to haue had so much
blood in him.
Doct.Do you marke that?Lad.
The Thane of Fife, had a wife: where is she now?
[2030]
What will these hands ne're be cleane? No more o'that
my Lord, no more o'that: you marre all with this star
ting.
Doct.Go too, go too:You haue knowne what you should not.Gent.
[2035]
She ha's spoke what shee should not, I am sure
of that: Heauen knowes what she ha's knowne.
La.
Heere's the smell of the blood still: all the per
fumes of Arabia will not sweeten this little hand.
Oh, oh, oh.
Doct.
[2040]
What a sigh is there? The hart is sorely charg'd.Gent.
I would not haue such a heart in my bosome,
for the dignity of the whole body.
Doct.Well, well, well.Gent.Pray God it be sir.Doct.
[2045]
This disease is beyond my practise: yet I haue
knowne those which haue walkt in their sleep, who haue
dyed holily in their beds.
Lad.
Wash your hands, put on your Night‑Gowne,
looke not so pale: I tell you yet againe Banquo's buried;
[2050]
he cannot come out on's graue.
Doct.Euen so?Lady.
To bed, to bed: there's knocking at the gate:
Come, come, come, come, giue me your hand: What's
done, cannot be vndone. To bed, to bed, to bed.
Exit Lady.Doct.
[2055]
Will she go now to bed?Gent.Directly.Doct.Foule whisp'rings are abroad: vnnaturall deedsDo breed vnnaturall troubles: infected mindesTo their deafe pillowes will discharge their Secrets:
[2060]
More needs she the Diuine, then the Physitian:God, God forgiue vs all. Looke after her,Remoue from her the meanes of all annoyance,And still keepe eyes vpon her: So goodnight,My minde she ha's mated, and amaz'd my sight.An ink mark follows the end of this line.
[2065]
I thinke, but dare not speake.Gent.Good night good Doctor.Exeunt.
