Even the same lips you kissed and knew not of
Will you kiss now, knowing the shame of them, And say no one word to me afterwards, That I may see I have loved the best lover And man most courteous of all men alive? MARY SEYTON. [Within.] Here, fetch the light: nay, this way; enter all. MARY BEATON. I am twice undone. Fly, get some hiding, sir; They have spied upon me somehow. CHASTELARD. Nay, fear not; Stand by my side. [Enter MARY SEYTON and MARY HAMILTON.] MARY HAMILTON. Give me that light: this way. CHASTELARD. What jest is here, fair ladies? it walks late, Something too late for laughing. MARY SEYTON. |
