A credulous father and a brother noble, whose nature is so far from doing harms that he suspects none.
And to thee and thine hereditary ever. remain this ample third of our fair kingdom, no less in space, validity and pleasure than that conferred on Goneril.
Armed? Brother…. Brother, I advise you to the best.
Ay, my good lord, you have begot me, bred me, loved me.
Be Kent unmannerly when Lear is mad?
Bethink yourself wherein you may have offended him, and at my entreaty forbear his presence until some little time hath qualified the heat of his displeasure, which at this instant so rageth in him that with the mischief of your person it would scarcely allay.
Better thou hadst not been born…. than not to have pleased me better.
But you have that in your countenance. which I would fain call master.
Cornwall and Albany, with my two daughters' dowers digest the third.
Dinner ho! Dinner ho!
Dinner ho! Dinner ho! Dinner ho! Dinner ho!
Dinner ho! Dinner ho! Dinner ho! Dinner ho! Dinner ho!
Er… I am made of that self mettle as my sister, and prize me at her worth.
Fairest Cordelia, thee and thy virtues here I seize upon.
Five days we do allot thee, for provision. to shield thee from diseases of the world, and on the sixth to turn thy hated back upon our kingdom.
For you, great king, I would not from your love make such a stray to match you where I hate.
Found you no displeasure in him by word nor countenance?
Give but that portion which yourself proposed, and I will make Cordelia Duchess of Burgundy.
Here I disclaim all my paternal care, and as a stranger to my heart and me hold thee from this for ever.
Hmm…. "If our father would sleep till I waked him, you should enjoy half his revenue for ever and live the beloved of your brother. Edgar." "Sleep till I waked him… Enjoy half his revenue." My son Edgar?
How now, Cordelia? Mend your speech a little, lest you may mar your fortunes.
I am thinking, brother, of a prediction I read this other day.
I do invest you jointly with my power, pre eminence, and all the large effects that troop with majesty.
I do profess to be no less than I seem.
I have told you what I have seen and heard but faintly, nothing like the image and horror of it.
I love your majesty according to my bond, no more nor less.
I loved her most, and thought to set my rest on her kind nursery.
I pray you retire with me to my lodging, from whence I will fitly bring you to hear my lord speak.
I return those duties back as are right fit: obey you, love you, and most honour you.
I yet beseech your majesty that you make it known. it is no vicious blot, murder, or foulness, no unchaste action or dishonoured step that hath deprived me of your grace and favour.
If I like thee no worse after dinner, I will not part from thee yet.
If our father carry authority with such disposition as this, it will but offend us.
If the matter were good, my lord, I durst swear it were his, but in respect of that, I would fain think it were not.
If, on the tenth day following, thy banished trunk be found in our dominions, the moment is thy death.
In my true heart, I find she names my very deed of love.
It is a letter from my brother that I have not all o'er read, and for so much as I have perused, I find it not fit for your o'erlooking.
Legitimate Edgar, I must have your land.
Let her be thine, for we have no such daughter, nor shall ever see that face of hers again.
Let it fall rather, though the fork invade the region of my heart.
Let pride, which she calls plainness, marry her.
Let your study be to content your lord, who hath received you at fortune's alms.
Let's see. Come, if it be nothing I shall not need spectacles.
Most royal majesty, I crave no more than hath your highness offered, nor will you tender less.
My life I never held but as a pawn to wage against thine enemies.
My Lord of Burgundy, we first address towards you, who with this king hath rivalled for our daughter.
My Lord of Burgundy, what say you to the lady? Will you have her?
Never, my lord, but I have heard him oft maintain it to be fit. that, sons at perfect age and fathers declined, the father should be as ward to the son and the son manage his revenue.
Now our joy, although the last and least, to whose young love the vines of France and milk of Burgundy strive to be interessed.
Now, banished Kent, if thou canst serve where thou dost stand condemned, so may it come, thy master, whom thou lovest, shall find thee full of labours.
Only she comes too short: that I profess myself an enemy to all other joys which the most precious square of sense possesses, and find I am alone felicitate in your dear highness' love.
