ACT FIRST
Scene One
[A Room in the Duke's Palace]
Enter Orsino, Duke of Illyria, Curio, and other Lords.
[Musicians attending.]
Duke. If music be the food of love, play on; Give me excess of it, that, surfeiting, The appetite may sicken, and so die. That strain again! it had a dying fall: 4 O! it came o'er my ear like the sweet sound That breathes upon a bank of violets. Stealing and giving odour. Enough! no more: 'Tis not so sweet now as it was before. 8 O spirit of love! how quick and fresh art thou, That, notwithstanding thy capacity Receiveth as the sea, nought enters there, Of what validity and pitch soe'er, 12 But falls into abatement and low price. Even in a minute: so full of shapes is fancy, That it alone is high fantastical.
Cur. Will you go hunt, my lord?
Duke. What, Curio? 16
Cur. The hart.
Duke. Why, so I do, the noblest that I have. ​Page:Twelfth Night (1922) Yale.djvu/14 ​Page:Twelfth Night (1922) Yale.djvu/15 ​Page:Twelfth Night (1922) Yale.djvu/16 ​Page:Twelfth Night (1922) Yale.djvu/17 ​Page:Twelfth Night (1922) Yale.djvu/18 ​Page:Twelfth Night (1922) Yale.djvu/19 ​Page:Twelfth Night (1922) Yale.djvu/20 ​Page:Twelfth Night (1922) Yale.djvu/21 ​Page:Twelfth Night (1922) Yale.djvu/22 ​Page:Twelfth Night (1922) Yale.djvu/23 ​Page:Twelfth Night (1922) Yale.djvu/24 ​Page:Twelfth Night (1922) Yale.djvu/25 ​Page:Twelfth Night (1922) Yale.djvu/26 ​Page:Twelfth Night (1922) Yale.djvu/27 ​Page:Twelfth Night (1922) Yale.djvu/28 ​Page:Twelfth Night (1922) Yale.djvu/29 ​Page:Twelfth Night (1922) Yale.djvu/30 ​Page:Twelfth Night (1922) Yale.djvu/31 ​Page:Twelfth Night (1922) Yale.djvu/32 ​Page:Twelfth Night (1922) Yale.djvu/33 ​Page:Twelfth Night (1922) Yale.djvu/34 ​Fate, show thy force: ourselves we do not owe; What is decreed must be, and be this so! 332
