Theseus Monologue from The Two Noble Kinsmen

From The Two Noble Kinsmen by William Shakespeare

male · dramatic · 48 sec

Th’ impartial gods, who from the mounted heavens View us their mortal herd, behold who err And, in their time, chastise. Go and find out The bones of your dead lords and honour them With treble ceremony, rather than a gap Should be in their dear rites, we would supply ’t, But those we will depute which shall invest You in your dignities and even each thing Our haste does leave imperfect. So, adieu, And heaven’s good eyes look on you. Enter a Herald and Soldiers bearing Palamon and Arcite on hearses. What are those?
