Because authority, though it err like others,
Hath yet a kind of medicine in itself That skins the vice o' the top. Go to your bosom; Knock there; and ask your heart what it doth know That's like my brother's fault: if it confess A natural guiltiness such as is his, Let it not sound a thought upon your tongue Against my brother's life. ANGELO. She speaks, and 'tis Such sense that my sense breeds with it.-- Fare you well. ISABELLA. Gentle my lord, turn back. ANGELO. I will bethink me:--Come again to-morrow. ISABELLA. Hark how I'll bribe you. Good my lord, turn back. ANGELO. How! bribe me? ISABELLA. Ay, with such gifts that heaven shall share with you. LUCIO. |
