949Scena Sexta.
950Enter Orlando, & Adam.
952O I die for food. Heere lie I downe,
954Orl. Why how now Adam? No greater heart in thee:
955Liue a little, comfort a little, cheere thy selfe a little.
957I wil either be food for it, or bring it for foode to thee:
958Thy conceite is neerer death, then thy powers.
959For my sake be comfortable, hold death a while
960At the armes end: I wil heere be with thee presently,
961And if I bring thee not something to eate,
962I wil giue thee leaue to die: but if thou diest
963Before I come, thou art a mocker of my labor.
965And Ile be with thee quickly: yet thou liest
966In the bleake aire. Come, I wil beare thee
968For lacke of a dinner,
969If there liue any thing in this Desert.
970Cheerely good Adam. Exeunt
