Iohn. Is all too wanton, and too full of gawdes
Iohn. To giue me audience: If the mid‑night bell
Iohn. Did with his yron tongue, and brazen mouth
Iohn. Sound on into the drowzie race of night:
Iohn. If this same were a Church‑yard where we stand,
Iohn. And thou possessed with a thousand wrongs:
Iohn. Or if that surly spirit melancholy
Iohn. Had bak'd thy bloud, and made it heauy, thicke,
Iohn. Which else runnes tickling vp and downe the veines,
Iohn. Making that idiot laughter keepe mens eyes,
Iohn. And straine their cheekes to idle merriment,
Iohn. A passion hatefull to my purposes:
Iohn. Or if that thou couldst see me without eyes,
Iohn. Heare me without thine eares, and make reply
Iohn. Without a tongue, vsing conceit alone,
Iohn. Without eyes, eares, and harmefull sound of words:
Iohn. Then, in despight of brooded watchfull day,
Iohn. I would into thy bosome poure my thoughts:
Iohn. But (ah) I will not, yet I loue thee well,
Iohn. And by my troth I thinke thou lou'st me well.
