O grace! O heaven forgive me! Are you a man? have you a soul or sense? God be wi’ you; take mine office. O wretched fool. That livest to make thine honesty a vice! O monstrous world! Take note, take note, O world, To be direct and honest is not safe. I thank you for this profit; and from hence I’ll love no friend, sith love breeds such offence.

I should be wise, for honesty’s a fool And loses that it works for.

By the world, I think my wife be honest and think she is not; I think that thou art just and think thou art not. I’ll have some proof. Her name, that was as fresh As Dian’s visage, is now begrimed and black As mine own face. If there be cords, or knives, Poison, or fire, or suffocating streams, I’ll not endure it. Would I were satisfied!

I see, sir, you are eaten up with passion: I do repent me that I put it to you. You would be satisfied?
