Act 2 Scene 1 Flashcards
ANTONIO Will you stay no longer? Nor will you not that I go with you?
By your patience, no. My stars shine darkly over me. The malignancy of my fate, might perhaps distemper yours. Therefore I shall crave of you your leave that I may bear my evils alone. It were a bad recompense for your love to lay any of them on you.
ANTONIO Let me yet know of you whither you are bound.
If you must know of me then Antonio, my name is Sebastian. My father was that Sebastian of Messaline, whom I know you have heard of. He left behind him, myself, and a sister, both born in an hour. If the Heavens had been pleased, would we had so ended! But you sir, altered that, for some hour before you took me from the breach of the sea was my sister drowned.
ANTONIO Alas the day!
A Lady, sir, though it was said she much resembled me, was yet of many accounted beautiful. She is drowned already, sir, with salt water, though I seem to drown her remembrance again with more.
ANTONIO If you will not murder me for my love, let me be your servant.
If you will not undo what you have done -
that is kill him, whom you have recovered- desire it not. Fare you well at once. My bosom is full of kindness, and I am yet so near the manners of my mother that, upon the least occasion more, mine eyes will tell tales of me: I am bound to the Count Orsino’s Court. Farewell. Exit
