P. 464
IACHIMO
It cannot be i’ th’ eye: for apes and monkeys,
’Twixt two such shes, would chatter this way, and [40]
Contemn with mows the other. Nor i’ the judgement:
For idiots in this case of favour, would
Be wisely definite: nor i’ th’ appetite.
Sluttery, to such neat excellence oppos’d,
Should make desire vomit emptiness, [45]
Not so allur’d to feed.
IMOGEN
What is the matter, trow?
IACHIMO
The cloyed will −
That satiate yet unsatisfied desire, that tub
Both fill’d and running − ravening first the lamb,
Longs after for the garbage.
IMOGEN
What, dear sir, [50]
Thus raps you? Are you well?
IACHIMO
Thanks madam, well:
[to Pisanio]
Beseech you sir,
Desire my man’s abode where I did leave him:
He’s strange and peevish.
PISANIO
I was going, sir,
To give him welcome. [55]
[Exit.]
IMOGEN
Continues well my lord? His health, beseech you?
