Well, go thy way, and thine own shame dwell with thee. Is this the constancy she shew'd, the bravery? The dear love and the life she ow'd her kinsmen? O brave tongue, valiant glorious woman! Is this the noble anger you arriv'd at? Are these the thieves you scorn'd, the rogues you rail'd at? The scabs and scums of nature? O fair modesty, Excellent vertue, whither art thou fled? What hand O Heaven is over us, when strong virgins Yield to their fears, and to their fears their fortunes? Never belief come near me more, farewel wench, A long farewel from all that ever knew thee: My turn is next, I am resolv'd, it comes But in a nobler shape, ha? (Enter.) Dinant. (Din: Blesse ye Lady.) Indeed Sir, I had need of many blessings, For all the hours I have had since I came here, Have been so many curses. How got you liberty? For I presume you come to comfort me.
