27352542Of my huge sorrowes, better I were distract,

27362543So should my thoughts be senced from my greefes,

27382544And woes by wrong imaginations, lose

27392545The knowledge of themselues.

27402547Edg. Giue me your hand:

27412548Farre off methinkes I heare the beaten drum.

27422549Come Father Ile bestow you with a friend. Exit

27452551Cor. O thou good Kent,

27462552How shall I liue and worke to match thy goodnesse,

27482553My life will be too short, and euery measure faile me.

27502554Kent. To be acknowledg'd Madam is ore-paid,

27512555All my reports go with the modest truth,

27522556Nor more, nor clipt, but so.

27542557Cor. Be better suited,

2558These weeds are memories of those worser houres,

27552559I prethee put them off.

27562560Kent. Pardon me deere Madam,

27572561Yet to be knowne shortens my made intent,

27582562My boone I make it that you know me not,

27592563Till time and I thinke meet.

27602564Cor. Then be it so: my Lord how does the king.

27622565Doct. Madam sleepes still.

27632566Cor. O you kinde Gods,

27642567Cure this great breach in his abused nature,

27652568The vntun'd and hurrying senses, O winde vp,

27662569Of this childe-changed Father.

27672570Doct. So please your Maiesty, we may wake the King

27682571He hath slept long.

27692572Cor. Be gouern'd by your knowledge, and proceede

27702573Ith sway of your owne will: is he array'd?

27722574Doct. I Madam, in the heauinesse of his sleepe,

27732575We put fresh garments on him.

27742576Kent. Good Madam be by when we do awake him,

27752577I doubt not of his temperance.
