Exeunt King, Longaville, and Dumaine.
BEROWNE
I’ll lay my head to any goodman’s hat
These oaths and laws will prove an idle scorn.
Sirrah, come on.
COST ARD
I suffer for the truth, sir; for true it is I was [295] taken with Jaquenetta,
and Jaquenetta is a true girl. And therefore welcome the sour cup of
prosperity! Affliction may one day smile again, and till then sit thee down,
sorrow!
Exeunt.
Scene II IT
Enter Armado and Mote, his page.
ARMADO
Boy, what sign is it when a man of great spirit grows melancholy?
MOTE
A great sign, sir, that he will look sad.
ARMADO
Why, sadness is one and the self-same thing, dear imp. [5]
MOTE
No, no; O Lord, sir, no!
ARMADO
How canst thou part sadness and melancholy, my tender juvenal?
MOTE
By a familiar demonstration of the working, my tough signor. [10]
ARMADO
Why tough signor? Why tough signor?
