JULIA

 His little speaking shows his love but small.

LUCET T A

 Fire that’s closest kept burns most of all. [30]

JULIA

 They do not love that do not show their love.

LUCET T A

 O, they love least that let men know their love.

JULIA

 I would I knew his mind.

LUCET T A

 Peruse this paper, madam.

JULIA

 “To Julia”. - Say, from whom? [35]

LUCET T A

 That the contents will show.

JULIA

 Say, say, who gave it thee?

LUCET T A

 Sir Valentine’s page; and sent, I think, from Proteus.
 He would have given it you; but I, being in the way,
 Did in your name receive it; pardon the fault, I pray. [40]

JULIA

 Now, by my modesty, a goodly broker!
 Dare you presume to harbour wanton lines?
 To whisper and conspire against my youth?
 Now, trust me, ’tis an office of great worth,
 And you an officer fit for the place. [45]
 There take the paper. See it be returned,
