The Tragedie of Hamlet

11493Hath in the skirts of Norway here and there,

11594Sharkt vp a sight of lawlesse Resolutes

11695For food and diet to some enterprise,

11796That hath a stomacke in't: and this (I take it) is the

12397Chiefe head and ground of this our watch.

12699But loe, behold, see where it comes againe,

127100Ile crosse it, though it blast me: stay illusion,

129101If there be any good thing to be done,

130102That may doe ease to thee, and grace to mee,

103Speake to mee.

131104If thou art priuy to thy countries fate,

132105Which happly foreknowing may preuent, O speake to me,

133106Or if thou hast extorted in thy life,

134107Or hoorded treasure in the wombe of earth,

135108For which they say you Spirites oft walke in death, speake

136109to me, stay and speake, speake, stoppe it Marcellus.

145115And our vaine blowes malitious mockery.

1461162. It was about to speake when the Cocke crew.

147117Hor. And then it faded like a guilty thing,

148118Vpon a fearefull summons: I haue heard

149119The Cocke, that is the trumpet to the morning,

150120Doth with his earely and shrill crowing throate,

151121Awake the god of day, and at his sound,

152122Whether in earth or ayre, in sea or fire,

153123The strauagant and erring spirite hies

154124To his confines, and of the trueth heereof

155125This present obiect made probation.

156126Marc. It faded on the crowing of the Cocke,

157127Some say, that euer gainst that season comes,

158128Wherein our Sauiours birth is celebrated,
