29012721Alb. We will greet the time.

29022722Bast. To both these sisters haue I sworne my loue,

29032723Each iealous of the other, as the sting are of the Adder,

29042724Which of them shall I take, both one

29052725Or neither; neither can be enioy'd

29062726If both remaine aliue: to take the Widdow,

29072727Exasperates, makes mad her sister Gonorill,

29082728And hardly shall I carry out my side

29092729Her husband being aliue. Now then wee'l vse

29102730His countenance for the battell, which being done

29112731Let her that would be rid of him deuise

29122732His speedy taking off: as for his mercie

29132733Which he extends to Lear and to Cordelia,

29142734The battell done, and they within our power,

29152735Shall neuer see his pardon: for my state

29162736Stands on me to defend, not to debate. Exit

29212740Edg. Heere Father, take the shadow of this bush

29222741For your good hoast: pray that the right may thriue.

29242743Ile bring you comfort. Exit

29282746Edg. Away olde man, giue me thy hand, away,

29292747King Lear hath lost, he and his daughter tane:

29302748Giue me thy hand, come on.

29312749Glo. No farther sir, a man may rot euen heere.

29322750Edg. What in ill thoughts agen? Men must endure,

29342751Their going hence, euen as their comming hither,

29352752Ripenesse is all come on. Exit.

29402754Bast. Some officers take them away, good guard,

29412755Vntill their greater pleasures best be knowne
