[_Enter Diphilus_.
_Diph_. Yonder has been such laughing. _Mel_. Betwixt whom? _Diph_. Why, our Sister and the King, I thought their spleens would break, They laught us all out of the room. _Mel_. They must weep, _Diphilus_. _Diph_. Must they? _Mel_. They must: thou art my Brother, and if I did believe Thou hadst a base thought, I would rip it out, Lie where it durst. _Diph_. You should not, I would first mangle my self and find it. _Mel_. That was spoke according to our strain; come Joyn thy hands to mine, And swear a firmness to what project I shall lay before thee. _Diph_. You do wrong us both; People hereafter shall not say there past A bond more than our loves, to tie our lives And deaths together. |
