SIR TOBY

          Come hither, knight, come hither, Fabian. We’ll whisper o’er a couplet or two
          of most sage saws.



              VIOLA
               He nam’d Sebastian. I my brother know
               Yet living in my glass; even such and so

               In favour was my brother, and he went [370]
               Still in this fashion, colour, ornament,
               For him I imitate. O if it prove,
               Tempests are kind, and salt waves fresh in love!

                                                                                                          (Exit.)

              SIR TOBY

              FABIAN
          Come, let’s see the event.



              SIR TOBY
          I dare lay any money ’twill be nothing yet.
                                                                                                        Exeunt.
