And, look you, here’s your letter. This it says:
When from my finger you can get this ring... [310]
And is by me with child, etc. This is done.
Will you be mine now you are doubly won?
BERTRAM
If she, my liege, can make me know this clearly
I’ll love her dearly, ever, ever dearly.
HELENA
If it appear not plain and prove untrue [315]
Deadly divorce step between me and you!
O my dear mother, do I see you living?
LAFEW
Mine eyes smell onions, I shall weep anon. (To Parolles ) Good Tom Drum,
lend me a handkercher. So, I thank thee. Wait on me home, I’ll make sport
with [320] thee. Let thy curtsies alone, they are scurvy ones.
KING
Let us from point to point this story know
To make the even truth in pleasure flow.
(To Diana) If thou beest yet a fresh uncroppèd flower
Choose thou thy husband and I’ll pay thy dower; [325]
For I can guess that by thy honest aid
Thou keptest a wife herself, thyself a maid.
Of that and all the progress more and less
Resolvèdly more leisure shall express.
All yet seems well, and if it end so meet, [330]
The bitter past, more welcome is the sweet.
Flourish.
