_Nurse:_ Where's the use troubling her with lessons and with books that maybe she will never be in need of at all. Speak up for her, King. _King:_ Let her stop for this year as she is. _Queen:_ You are all too soft and too easy. She will turn on you and will blame you for it, and another year or two years slipped by. _Nurse:_ That she may! _Dall Glic:_ Who knows what might take place within the twelvemonth that is coming? _King:_ Ah, don't be talking about it. Maybe it never might come to pass. _Dall Glic_: It will come to pass, if there is truth in the clouds of sky. _King_: It will not be for a year, anyway. There'll be many an ebbing and flowing of the tide within a year. _Queen_: What at all are you talking about? _King_: Ah, where's the use of talking too much. |
