ROSALINE

 You took the moon at full, but now she’s changed.
                                                                    Instruments strike up.

KING

 Yet still she is the moon, and I the man. [215]
 The music plays; vouchsafe some motion to it.

ROSALINE

 Our ears vouchsafe it.

KING

                But your legs should do it.

ROSALINE

 Since you are strangers and come here by chance,
 We’ll not be nice. Take hands. We will not dance.

KING

 Why take we hands then?

ROSALINE

                Only to part friends. [220]
 Curtsy, sweet hearts. And so the measure ends.

KING

 More measure of this measure! Be not nice.

ROSALINE

 We can afford no more at such a price.

KING

 Price you yourselves. What buys your company?

ROSALINE

 Your absence only.

KING

                That can never be. [225]
