Home Shakespeare The Two Gentlemen of Verona |
Have patience, gentle Julia.JULIA
I must, where is no remedy.PROTEUS
When possibly I can, I will return.JULIA
If you turn not, you will return the sooner.Giving a ring
Keep this remembrance for thy Julia's sake.
Why then, we'll make exchange; here, take you this.JULIA
And seal the bargain with a holy kiss.PROTEUS
Here is my hand for my true constancy;Enter PANTHINO
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!
What, gone without a word?
Ay, so true love should do: it cannot speak;
For truth hath better deeds than words to grace it.
Sir Proteus, you are stay'd for.PROTEUS
Go; I come, I come.Exeunt
Alas! this parting strikes poor lovers dumb.
