Much ado about nothing

00:01:25,358 --> 00:01:28,633
I learn in this letter
that Don Pedro of Aragon

3
00:01:28,802 --> 00:01:30,634
comes this night to Messina!

4
00:01:32,907 --> 00:01:34,095
He is very near by this.

5
00:01:34,303 --> 00:01:35,852
He was not three leagues off
when I left him.

6
00:01:36,097 --> 00:01:40,714
- How many gentlemen have you lost in this action?
- But few of any sort and none of name.

7
00:01:40,934 --> 00:01:45,186
A victory is twice itself when the achiever
brings home full numbers.

8
00:01:45,447 --> 00:01:48,583
I find here that Don Pedro
hath bestowed much honor

9
00:01:48,761 --> 00:01:51,789
on a young Florentine called Claudio!

10
00:01:51,932 --> 00:01:55,605
Much deserved on his part
and equally remembered by Don Pedro:

11
00:01:55,763 --> 00:01:58,645
He hath borne himself
beyond the promise of his age,

12
00:01:58,856 --> 00:02:01,617
doing in the figure of a lamb
the feats of a lion!

13
00:02:01,818 --> 00:02:04,325
he hath indeed better
bettered expectation

14
00:02:04,475 --> 00:02:06,540
than you must expect of me to
tell you how.

15
00:02:06,701 --> 00:02:13,566
I pray you, is Signior Mountanto
returned from the war or no?

16
00:02:14,064 --> 00:02:17,683
I know none of that name, lady.
There was none such in the army of any sort.

17
00:02:17,841 --> 00:02:19,692
What is he that you ask for, niece?

18
00:02:19,839 --> 00:02:22,416
My cousin means
Signior Benedick of Padua.

19
00:02:22,566 --> 00:02:25,525
He's returned,
and as pleasant as ever he was.

20
00:02:25,675 --> 00:02:29,266
I pray you, how many hath
he killed and eaten in these wars?

21
00:02:29,747 --> 00:02:31,480
But how many hath he killed?

22
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:33,716
For indeed I promised
to eat all of his killing.

23
00:02:33,852 --> 00:02:36,170
Faith, niece, you tax
Signior Benedick too much;

24
00:02:36,284 --> 00:02:39,039
but he'll be meet with you,
I doubt it not.

25
00:02:39,165 --> 00:02:41,535
He hath done good service, lady,
in these wars.

26
00:02:41,704 --> 00:02:44,504
You had musty victual,
and he hath help to eat them:

27
00:02:44,676 --> 00:02:48,266
he is a very valiant trencherman;
he hath an excellent stomach.

28
00:02:48,456 --> 00:02:49,984
And a good soldier too, lady.

29
00:02:50,102 --> 00:02:52,660
And a good soldier to a lady.

30
00:02:54,409 --> 00:02:58,345
- But what is he to a lord?
- A lord to a lord. A man to a man.

31
00:02:58,445 --> 00:03:02,075
- Stuffed with all honourable virtues.
- It is so indeed.

32
00:03:02,145 --> 00:03:05,112
He is no less than a stuffed man.

33
00:03:05,643 --> 00:03:09,048
But for the stuffing, well...

34
00:03:09,703 --> 00:03:11,235
We are all mortal.

35
00:03:11,376 --> 00:03:13,185
You must not, sir, mistake my niece.

36
00:03:13,363 --> 00:03:17,597
There is a kind of merry war
betwixt Signior Benedick and her.

37
00:03:17,727 --> 00:03:20,224
They never meet, but there's
a skirmish of wit between them.

38
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:21,939
Alas! he gets nothing by that.

39
00:03:22,158 --> 00:03:26,048
In our last conflict four of his
five wits went halting off,

40
00:03:26,173 --> 00:03:27,790
and now is the whole man
governed with one:

41
00:03:29,333 --> 00:03:31,093
Who is his companion now?

42
00:03:31,336 --> 00:03:34,198
He hath every month
a new sworn brother.

43
00:03:34,357 --> 00:03:36,383
- Is't possible?
- Very easily possible:

44
00:03:36,537 --> 00:03:38,513
he wears his faith but as
the fashion of his hat;

45
00:03:38,691 --> 00:03:40,785
it ever changes with the
next block.

46
00:03:40,895 --> 00:03:43,180
I see, lady, the gentleman
is not in your books.

47
00:03:43,338 --> 00:03:45,639
No; an he were, I would burn my study.

48
00:03:46,532 --> 00:03:48,594
But, I pray you, who is his companion?

49
00:03:48,814 --> 00:03:53,433
Is there no young squarer now
will make a voyage with him to the devil?

50
00:03:53,593 --> 00:03:56,633
He is most in the company
of the right noble Claudio.

51
00:03:56,952 --> 00:03:58,625
Oh, Lord!

52
00:03:59,961 --> 00:04:02,729
He will hang upon him like a disease!

53
00:04:02,881 --> 00:04:07,260
He is sooner caught than the pestilence,
and the taker runs presently mad.

54
00:04:07,391 --> 00:04:09,377
God help the noble Claudio.

55
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:14,973
If he have caught the Benedick, it will
cost him 1,000 pounds ere he be cured.

56
00:04:15,115 --> 00:04:17,085
I will hold friends with you, lady!

57
00:04:17,216 --> 00:04:21,097
Do, good friend.

58
00:04:21,249 --> 00:04:22,614
You will never run mad, niece.

59
00:04:22,792 --> 00:04:25,473
No, not till a hot January.

60
00:04:26,172 --> 00:04:28,609
Don Pedro is approaching!

61
00:04:44,938 --> 00:04:49,444
Good Signior Leonato,
are you come to meet your trouble?

62
00:04:49,634 --> 00:04:53,402
The fashion of the world is to
avoid cost, and you encounter it.

63
00:04:53,529 --> 00:04:56,507
Never came trouble to my house
in the likeness of your grace.

64
00:04:56,657 --> 00:04:58,326
You embrace your charge too willingly.

65
00:05:00,308 --> 00:05:02,063
I think this is your daughter.

66
00:05:02,294 --> 00:05:04,486
Her mother hath many times told me so.

67
00:05:06,139 --> 00:05:08,409
Were you in doubt, sir, that you asked her?

68
00:05:08,554 --> 00:05:12,236
Signior Benedick, no;
for then were you a child.

69
00:05:12,587 --> 00:05:16,960
You have it full, Benedick!
Truly, the lady fathers herself.

70
00:05:18,114 --> 00:05:21,867
Be happy, lady; for you are like an
honourable father.

71
00:05:21,980 --> 00:05:23,809
If Signior Leonato be her father,

72
00:05:23,914 --> 00:05:26,443
She would not have her father's head
on her shoulders for all Messina,

73
00:05:26,627 --> 00:05:28,795
as like him as she is.

74
00:05:29,268 --> 00:05:34,961
I wonder that you will still be talking,
Signior Benedick. Nobody marks you.

75
00:05:37,186 --> 00:05:44,566
What, my dear Lady Disdain!

76
00:05:45,145 --> 00:05:46,959
Are you yet living?

77
00:05:48,984 --> 00:05:51,886
Is it possible disdain should die,

78
00:05:52,072 --> 00:05:56,365
when she hath such meet food
to feed it as Signior Benedick?

79
00:05:56,988 --> 00:06:01,246
Courtesy itself must convert to disdain
if you come in her presence.

80
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:02,910
Then is courtesy a turncoat.

81
00:06:03,204 --> 00:06:06,593
But it is certain I am loved of all
ladies, only you excepted.

82
00:06:06,736 --> 00:06:12,750
I would I could find in my heart that I had
not a hard heart; for, truly, I love none.

83
00:06:12,924 --> 00:06:16,563
A dear happiness to women.

84
00:06:17,058 --> 00:06:20,165
They would else have been troubled
with a pernicious suitor.

85
00:06:20,369 --> 00:06:24,543
I thank God and my cold blood,
I am of your humour for that.

86
00:06:24,766 --> 00:06:32,566
I had rather hear my dog bark at a crow
than a man swear he loves me.

87
00:06:32,885 --> 00:06:35,402
God keep your ladyship
still in that mind,

88
00:06:35,493 --> 00:06:40,487
so some gentleman or other shall
'scape a predestinate scratched face.

89
00:06:40,619 --> 00:06:43,992
Scratching could not make it worse,
an 'twere such a face as yours were.

90
00:06:45,171 --> 00:06:46,948
You are a rare parrot.

91
00:06:47,051 --> 00:06:50,456
A bird of my tongue
is better than a beast of yours.

92
00:06:50,512 --> 00:06:53,929
I would my horse had the speed of your tongue,
and so good a continuer.

93
00:06:54,049 --> 00:06:57,628
But keep your way, in God's name.
I have done.

94
00:06:57,774 --> 00:07:00,433
You always end with a jade's trick.

95
00:07:02,607 --> 00:07:04,438
I know you of old.

96
00:07:04,537 --> 00:07:07,922
This is the sum of all,
Signior Claudio, Signior Benedick,

97
00:07:08,066 --> 00:07:11,374
my dear friend Leonato hath
invited you all.

98
00:07:11,579 --> 00:07:13,870
I tell him we shall stay here
at the least a month.

99
00:07:13,989 --> 00:07:17,492
and he heartily prays some
occasion may detain us longer.

100
00:07:17,493 --> 00:07:19,421
Don John, let me bid
you welcome, my lord.

101
00:07:19,607 --> 00:07:21,956
Being reconciled to the prince,
your brother,

102
00:07:22,049 --> 00:07:23,548
I owe you all duty.

103
00:07:23,634 --> 00:07:24,756
I thank you.

104
00:07:25,015 --> 00:07:26,948
I am not of many words, but I...

105
00:07:28,058 --> 00:07:29,498
Thank you.

106
00:07:30,326 --> 00:07:34,019
- Please it your grace lead on?
- We will go together.

107
00:07:47,094 --> 00:07:47,965
Benedick...

108
00:07:48,064 --> 00:07:50,077
Didst thou note the daughter
of Signior Leonato?

109
00:07:50,196 --> 00:07:54,945
- I noted her not, but I looked on her.
- Is she not a modest young lady?

110
00:07:55,063 --> 00:07:58,765
Do you question me as an honest man should do
for my simple true judgment,

111
00:07:58,850 --> 00:08:03,496
or would you have me speak after my custom
as a professed tyrant to their sex?

112
00:08:03,609 --> 00:08:05,716
No. I pray thee speak in sober judgment.

113
00:08:06,063 --> 00:08:07,487
Why?

114
00:08:10,309 --> 00:08:15,853
I' faith, methinks she's too tall
for a great praise,

115
00:08:17,002 --> 00:08:20,996
too brown for a fair praise,
and too lean for a large praise.

116
00:08:21,098 --> 00:08:22,863
Only this commendation I can afford her,

117
00:08:22,945 --> 00:08:27,133
Were she other than she is,
she were unhandsome,

118
00:08:27,378 --> 00:08:29,803
being no other but as she is,
I do not like her.

119
00:08:29,889 --> 00:08:33,481
Thou thinkest I am in sport.
I pray thee tell me truly how thou likest her.

120
00:08:33,574 --> 00:08:35,188
Would you buy her
that you inquire after her?

121
00:08:35,286 --> 00:08:43,005
- Can the world buy such a jewel?
- Yea, and a case to put it into.

122
00:08:43,488 --> 00:08:46,410
But speak you this with a sad brow?

123
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,014
Come, in what key shall a man take you,
to go in the song?

124
00:08:49,101 --> 00:08:51,686
In mine eyes she is the sweetest lady
that ever I looked on.

125
00:08:51,829 --> 00:08:55,086
I can see yet without spectacles
and I see no such matter.

126
00:08:55,919 --> 00:08:59,874
There's her cousin, an' she
were not possessed with a fury,

127
00:08:59,944 --> 00:09:03,364
exceeds her as much in beauty as the
first of May doth the last of December.

128
00:09:08,056 --> 00:09:13,327
I hope you have no intent
to turn husband. Have you?

129
00:09:13,433 --> 00:09:14,765
I would scarce trust myself,

130
00:09:14,857 --> 00:09:16,553
though I had sworn the contrary,

131
00:09:16,654 --> 00:09:18,349
if Hero would be my wife.

132
00:09:18,464 --> 00:09:20,368
Is't come to this?

133
00:09:21,036 --> 00:09:24,805
Shall I never see a bachelor
of three-score again?

134
00:09:24,879 --> 00:09:27,692
I' faith; if thou wilt needs
thrust thy neck into a yoke,

135
00:09:27,806 --> 00:09:30,329
wear the print of it
and sigh away Sundays, go to.

136
00:09:30,409 --> 00:09:33,442
What secret hath held you
here that you followed not?

137
00:09:33,519 --> 00:09:36,004
I would your grace
would constrain me to tell.

138
00:09:37,292 --> 00:09:39,154
I charge thee on thy allegiance.

139
00:09:40,557 --> 00:09:42,426
You hear, Count Claudio:

140
00:09:42,729 --> 00:09:45,581
I can be secret as a dumb man;
I would have you think so;

141
00:09:45,672 --> 00:09:49,161
but, on my allegiance,
mark you this,

142
00:09:50,207 --> 00:09:52,403
on my allegiance.

143
00:09:54,034 --> 00:09:55,026
He is in love!

144
00:09:56,450 --> 00:09:58,501
With who? That is your grace's part.

145
00:09:58,595 --> 00:10:00,554
Mark how short his answer is:

146
00:10:00,683 --> 00:10:06,377
- With Hero, Leonato's long daughter!
- If this were so, so were it uttered.

147
00:10:06,454 --> 00:10:10,055
Amen, if you love her;
for the lady is very well worthy.

148
00:10:10,163 --> 00:10:11,489
You speak this to fetch me in.

149
00:10:11,598 --> 00:10:14,430
- By my troth, I speak my thought.
- And in faith, my lord, I speak mine.

150
00:10:14,527 --> 00:10:17,359
By my two faiths and troths,
my lord, I speak mine.

151
00:10:17,473 --> 00:10:20,001
- That I love her, I feel.
- That she is worthy, I know.

152
00:10:20,057 --> 00:10:22,449
That I neither feel
how she should be loved

153
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:24,647
nor know how she should be worthy

154
00:10:24,750 --> 00:10:29,337
is the opinion that fire cannot melt
out of me: I will die in at the stake.

155
00:10:29,407 --> 00:10:33,064
Thou wast ever an obstinate heretic
in the despite of beauty.

156
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,614
And never could maintain his part
but in the force of his will.

157
00:10:35,707 --> 00:10:40,397
That a woman conceived me,
I thank her.

158
00:10:41,290 --> 00:10:45,061
That she brought me up, I likewise
give her most humble thanks.

159
00:10:45,138 --> 00:10:48,370
But that I will have a recheat
winded in my forehead,

160
00:10:48,502 --> 00:10:51,706
or hang my bugle
in an invisible baldrick,

161
00:10:51,861 --> 00:10:53,590
all women shall pardon me.

162
00:10:54,012 --> 00:10:57,302
Because I will not do
them the wrong to mistrust any,

163
00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:00,330
I will do myself the
right to trust none;

164
00:11:00,585 --> 00:11:03,679
and the fine is, for the which
I may go the finer,

165
00:11:03,793 --> 00:11:06,701
I will live a bachelor.

166
00:11:07,366 --> 00:11:11,313
I shall see thee, ere I die,
look pale with love.

167
00:11:11,434 --> 00:11:17,644
With anger, with sickness,
or with hunger, my lord, not with love.

168
00:11:17,784 --> 00:11:22,827
prove that ever I lose more blood
with love than I will get again with drinking,

169
00:11:22,994 --> 00:11:26,628
pick out mine eyes
with a ballad-maker's pen

170
00:11:26,676 --> 00:11:29,499
and hang me up at the door of a brothel-house
for the sign of blind Cupid.

171
00:11:29,574 --> 00:11:32,806
Well, if ever thou dost fall from this faith,
thou wilt prove a notable argument.

172
00:11:32,870 --> 00:11:39,842
If I do, hang me in a bottle like a cat
and shoot at me;

173
00:11:40,417 --> 00:11:42,517
Well, as time shall try -

174
00:11:42,641 --> 00:11:46,891
"In time, the savage bull
doth bear the yoke. "

175
00:11:47,016 --> 00:11:50,820
The savage bull may;
but if ever the sensible Benedick bear it,

176
00:11:50,955 --> 00:11:54,347
pluck off the bull's horns
and set them in my forehead,

177
00:11:54,499 --> 00:11:58,070
and let me be vilely painted,
and in such great letters as they write:

178
00:11:58,209 --> 00:11:59,911
"Here is a good horse to hire."

179
00:11:59,912 --> 00:12:06,268
Let them signify under my sign, "Here
you may see Benedick the married man."

180
00:12:06,634 --> 00:12:09,835
In the meantime,
good Signior Benedick, repair to Leonato's.

181
00:12:09,959 --> 00:12:12,728
commend me to him and tell him I will
not fail him at supper;

182
00:12:12,822 --> 00:12:15,470
for indeed, he hath made great preparation.

183
00:12:15,578 --> 00:12:18,336
I have almost matter enough in me
for such an embassage;

184
00:12:18,634 --> 00:12:23,639
- and so I commit you...
- "To the tuition of God: From my house, if I had it..."

185
00:12:23,714 --> 00:12:27,513
"The sixth of July:
Your loving friend, Benedick."

186
00:12:28,613 --> 00:12:32,660
Nay, mock not, mock not.

187
00:12:32,768 --> 00:12:36,622
The body of your discourse
is sometime guarded with fragments,

188
00:12:39,525 --> 00:12:42,440
and the guards are
but slightly basted on neither:

189
00:12:46,490 --> 00:12:51,362
ere you flout old ends any further,
examine your conscience:

190
00:12:52,396 --> 00:12:55,456
And so I leave you.

191
00:12:58,752 --> 00:13:01,770
My liege, your highness
now may do me good.

192
00:13:02,019 --> 00:13:03,518
My love is thine to teach:

193
00:13:03,764 --> 00:13:07,393
teach it but how, and thou shalt see
how apt it is to learn

194
00:13:07,509 --> 00:13:09,443
any hard lesson that may do thee good.

195
00:13:09,464 --> 00:13:11,216
Hath Leonato any son, my lord?

196
00:13:11,252 --> 00:13:13,630
No child but Hero. She's his only heir.

197
00:13:14,998 --> 00:13:16,457
Dost thou affect her, Claudio?

198
00:13:16,462 --> 00:13:19,933
My lord, when you went onward
on this ended action,

199
00:13:19,988 --> 00:13:22,684
I looked upon her
with a soldier's eye that liked,

200
00:13:22,799 --> 00:13:26,136
but had a rougher task in hand than
to drive liking to the name of love.

201
00:13:26,231 --> 00:13:27,332
But now...

202
00:13:27,381 --> 00:13:31,213
I am returned and that war thoughts
have left their places vacant,

203
00:13:31,349 --> 00:13:35,035
in their rooms come thronging
soft and delicate desires,

204
00:13:35,238 --> 00:13:37,313
all prompting me how fair
young Hero is.

205
00:13:37,392 --> 00:13:39,470
Saying, I liked her ere I went to wars.

206
00:13:39,475 --> 00:13:43,672
Thou wilt be like a lover presently, and
tire the hearer with a book of words.

207
00:13:47,327 --> 00:13:51,207
If thou dost love fair Hero,
cherish it.

208
00:13:51,344 --> 00:13:54,474
I will break with her and her father,
and thou shalt have her.

209
00:13:54,605 --> 00:13:57,435
Was't not to this end that thou
began'st to twist so fine a story?

210
00:13:57,524 --> 00:14:02,284
How sweetly you do minister to love,
that know love's grief by his complexion!

211
00:14:03,228 --> 00:14:07,749
But lest my liking might too sudden seem,
I would have salved it with a longer treatise.

212
00:14:07,804 --> 00:14:10,778
What need the bridge
much broader than the flood?

213
00:14:11,974 --> 00:14:14,716
The fairest grant is the necessity.

214
00:14:16,376 --> 00:14:21,006
Look, what will serve is fit: 'tis once, thou lovest,
and I will fit thee with the remedy.

215
00:14:21,201 --> 00:14:22,641
I know we shall have reveling tonight.

216
00:14:22,728 --> 00:14:25,091
I will assume thy part in some disguise,

217
00:14:25,193 --> 00:14:28,132
and tell fair Hero that I am Claudio.

218
00:14:28,187 --> 00:14:32,083
And in her bosom I'll unclasp my heart,
and take her hearing prisoner

219
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:35,380
with the force and strong encounter
of my amorous tale.

220
00:14:35,562 --> 00:14:39,866
Then after to her father will I break,
and the conclusion is

221
00:14:39,898 --> 00:14:41,515
she shall be thine.

222
00:14:41,602 --> 00:14:43,395
In practice
let us put it presently.

223
00:14:53,946 --> 00:14:57,959
How now, wife! Where is Balthasar?
Hath he provided the music?

224
00:14:58,135 --> 00:14:59,978
He is very busy about it.

225
00:15:00,314 --> 00:15:04,533
But, husband, I can tell
you news that you yet dreamt not of.

226
00:15:04,602 --> 00:15:06,503
- Are they good?
- They show well outward.

227
00:15:06,659 --> 00:15:10,759
I overheard the prince discover to Claudio
that he loved our daughter,

228
00:15:10,849 --> 00:15:13,266
and meant to acknowledge it
this night in a dance:

229
00:15:13,364 --> 00:15:14,624
The prince!

230
00:15:16,048 --> 00:15:19,574
If he founds her accordant,
he means to take the present time by the top

231
00:15:19,666 --> 00:15:21,578
and instantly break with you of it.

232
00:15:21,669 --> 00:15:24,229
We will hold it as a dream
till it appear itself:

233
00:15:24,366 --> 00:15:26,694
but I will acquaint our daughter withal,

234
00:15:26,802 --> 00:15:31,151
that she may be the better prepared for an answer,
if peradventure this be true.

235
00:15:31,260 --> 00:15:32,624
Go you and tell her of it.

236
00:15:32,742 --> 00:15:34,841
Balthasar, you know what you have to do.

237
00:15:34,962 --> 00:15:38,353
I cry you mercy; go you with me,
and I will use your skill.

238
00:15:38,473 --> 00:15:41,856
Have a care this busy time.

239
00:16:03,376 --> 00:16:05,163
What the good-year, my lord.

240
00:16:05,446 --> 00:16:07,869
Why are you thus out of measure sad?

241
00:16:07,915 --> 00:16:10,215
There is no measure in the occasion
that breeds,

242
00:16:10,300 --> 00:16:11,937
therefore the sadness is without limit.

243
00:16:12,014 --> 00:16:13,216
You should hear reason.

244
00:16:13,296 --> 00:16:15,046
If when I have heard it,
what blessing brings it?

245
00:16:15,111 --> 00:16:18,051
If not a present remedy,
at least a patient sufferance.

246
00:16:18,104 --> 00:16:22,508
I wonder that thou goest about to apply a moral
medicine to a mortifying mischief.

247
00:16:23,331 --> 00:16:25,437
I cannot hide what I am.

248
00:16:25,588 --> 00:16:29,591
I must be sad when I have cause,
and smile at no man's jests,

249
00:16:29,705 --> 00:16:32,759
eat when I have stomach,
and wait for no man's leisure.

250
00:16:32,881 --> 00:16:36,061
Sleep when I am drowsy,
and tend on no man's business.

251
00:16:36,164 --> 00:16:37,509
Laugh when I am merry,

252
00:16:38,632 --> 00:16:40,279
and claw no man in his humor.

253
00:16:40,366 --> 00:16:42,425
Yea... but you must not
make full show of this

254
00:16:42,523 --> 00:16:45,103
till you may do so without controlment.

255
00:16:45,241 --> 00:16:47,747
You have of late stood out
against your brother,

256
00:16:47,813 --> 00:16:50,227
and he hath ta'en you
newly into his grace,

257
00:16:50,301 --> 00:16:54,941
where it is impossible you should take root
by the fair weather that you make yourself.

258
00:16:55,087 --> 00:16:58,732
It is needful that you frame the season
for your own harvest.

259
00:16:58,910 --> 00:17:03,769
I had rather be a canker in a hedge
than a rose in his grace!

260
00:17:06,406 --> 00:17:09,195
and it better fits my blood to be
disdained of all

261
00:17:09,293 --> 00:17:12,086
than to fashion a carriage to rob
love from any:

262
00:17:12,245 --> 00:17:16,201
In this, though I cannot be said
to be a flattering, honest man,

263
00:17:16,259 --> 00:17:20,598
it must not be denied
but I am a plain-dealing villain.

264
00:17:21,742 --> 00:17:25,686
I am trusted with
a muzzle and enfranchised with a clog;

265
00:17:25,782 --> 00:17:28,264
therefore I have decreed
not to sing in my cage.

266
00:17:28,433 --> 00:17:32,326
If I had my mouth, I would bite.

267
00:17:32,716 --> 00:17:36,764
If I had my liberty,
I would do my liking.

268
00:17:36,950 --> 00:17:39,295
In the meantime, let me be that I am,

269
00:17:39,403 --> 00:17:40,696
and seek not to alter me.

270
00:17:40,790 --> 00:17:42,874
Can you make no use of your discontent?

271
00:17:42,939 --> 00:17:46,852
I make all use of it, for I use it only.
Who comes here?

272
00:17:46,971 --> 00:17:48,790
What news, Borachio?

273
00:17:48,857 --> 00:17:54,888
I came yonder from a great supper: the prince your
brother is royally entertained by Leonato:

274
00:17:54,945 --> 00:17:58,845
and I can give you intelligence
of an intended marriage.

275
00:17:58,949 --> 00:18:02,410
Will it serve for any model
to build mischief on?

276
00:18:02,501 --> 00:18:06,136
What is he for a fool
that betroths himself to unquietness?

277
00:18:06,233 --> 00:18:09,250
Marry, it is your brother's right hand.

278
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:12,321
- Who? The most exquisite Claudio?
- Even he.

279
00:18:12,432 --> 00:18:16,935
A proper squire! And who, and who?
which way looks he?

280
00:18:17,014 --> 00:18:20,657
Marry, on Hero, the daughter
and heir of Leonato.

281
00:18:20,786 --> 00:18:25,920
- A very forward March-chick! How came you to this?
- I heard it agreed upon

282
00:18:26,035 --> 00:18:30,175
that the prince should woo Hero
for himself, and having obtained her,

283
00:18:30,287 --> 00:18:32,120
give her to Count Claudio.

284
00:18:35,202 --> 00:18:37,341
Come! Come, let us thither.

285
00:18:37,492 --> 00:18:40,050
This may prove food to my displeasure.

286
00:18:40,181 --> 00:18:43,176
That young start-up
hath all the glory of my overthrow.

287
00:18:43,315 --> 00:18:45,366
If I can cross him any way,

288
00:18:45,448 --> 00:18:48,712
I bless myself every way.

289
00:18:49,262 --> 00:18:51,033
You are both sure, and will assist me?

290
00:18:51,137 --> 00:18:52,272
To the death, my lord.

291
00:18:52,360 --> 00:18:57,313
Let us to the great supper: their cheer is the
greater that I am subdued.

292
00:19:01,926 --> 00:19:04,427
Would the cook were of my mind!

293
00:19:08,263 --> 00:19:11,974
- Shall we go prove what's to be done?
- We'll wait upon your lordship.

294
00:19:45,672 --> 00:19:50,308
- Was not Count John here at supper?
- I saw him not.

295
00:19:50,450 --> 00:19:55,600
How tartly that gentleman looks. I never can see him
but I am heart-burned an hour after.

296
00:19:55,942 --> 00:19:59,231
He's of a very melancholy disposition.

297
00:19:59,305 --> 00:20:02,455
He were an excellent man
that were made just in the midway

298
00:20:02,548 --> 00:20:04,806
between him and Benedick.

299
00:20:04,901 --> 00:20:08,360
The one is too like an image
and says nothing,

300
00:20:08,448 --> 00:20:12,453
and the other too like my lady's
eldest son - evermore tattling.

301
00:20:12,535 --> 00:20:15,337
Then half Signior Benedick's tongue
in Count John's mouth,

302
00:20:15,429 --> 00:20:19,036
and half Count John's melancholy
in Signior Benedick's face...

303
00:20:19,217 --> 00:20:22,346
With a good leg! And a good foot, Uncle,
and money enough in his purse.

304
00:20:22,451 --> 00:20:24,633
Such a man would win
any woman in the world,

305
00:20:24,787 --> 00:20:26,965
if he could get her good will.

306
00:20:27,046 --> 00:20:30,885
By my troth, niece, thou wilt never get thee a husband
if thou be so shrewd of thy tongue.

307
00:20:30,951 --> 00:20:32,472
In faith, she's too curst.

308
00:20:32,585 --> 00:20:37,553
Too curst is more than curst:
I shall lessen God's sending that way;

309
00:20:37,689 --> 00:20:40,629
for it is said, 'God sends a curst
cow short horns;'

310
00:20:40,693 --> 00:20:42,491
but to a cow too curst he sends none.

311
00:20:42,555 --> 00:20:44,745
So, by being too curst,
God will send you no horns.

312
00:20:44,822 --> 00:20:48,008
Just, if he send me no husband;

313
00:20:48,125 --> 00:20:52,607
for the which blessing I am at him upon my knees
every morning and evening.

314
00:20:52,765 --> 00:20:58,889
Lord, I could not endure a husband with a
beard on his face. I had rather lie in the woolen.

315
00:20:59,007 --> 00:21:02,276
You may light on a husband
that hath no beard.

316
00:21:02,370 --> 00:21:04,120
What should I do with him?

317
00:21:04,241 --> 00:21:08,903
Dress him in my apparel
and make him my waiting gentlewoman?

318
00:21:09,029 --> 00:21:12,208
He that hath a beard
is more than a youth,

319
00:21:12,357 --> 00:21:14,984
and he that hath no beard
is less than a man.

320
00:21:15,086 --> 00:21:18,000
He that is more than a youth
is not for me.

321
00:21:18,126 --> 00:21:22,524
He that is less than a man,
I am not for him.

322
00:21:22,814 --> 00:21:26,195
therefore, I shall even take
sixpence in earnest of the bear-keeper,

323
00:21:26,306 --> 00:21:27,909
and lead his apes into hell.

324
00:21:27,950 --> 00:21:31,002
- Well, then, go you into hell?
- No, but to the gate.

325
00:21:31,067 --> 00:21:34,382
There will the devil meet me
like an old cuckold,

326
00:21:34,534 --> 00:21:40,618
with horns on his head, and say,
"Get you to heaven, Beatrice.

327
00:21:40,779 --> 00:21:46,838
Get you to heaven.
Here's no place for you maids."

328
00:21:47,024 --> 00:21:50,041
So deliver I up my apes,
and away to Saint Peter for the heavens.

329
00:21:50,209 --> 00:21:54,690
He shows me where the bachelors sit,
and there live we as merry as the day is long.

330
00:21:54,822 --> 00:21:58,243
Daughter, I trust you will be ruled
by your father.

331
00:21:58,423 --> 00:22:03,746
Yes, faith; it is my cousin's duty
to make curtsy and say,

332
00:22:04,064 --> 00:22:05,929
"Father, as it please you."

333
00:22:06,043 --> 00:22:09,254
But yet for all that, cousin,
let him be a handsome fellow,

334
00:22:09,351 --> 00:22:13,874
else make another curtsy and say,
"Father, as it please me."

335
00:22:14,044 --> 00:22:18,437
Well, niece, I hope to see you
one day fitted with a husband.

336
00:22:18,574 --> 00:22:22,737
Not till God make men
of some other metal than earth.

337
00:22:22,853 --> 00:22:29,136
Would it not grieve a woman to be
overmastered by a pierce of valiant dust?

338
00:22:29,292 --> 00:22:32,916
to make an account of her life
to a clod of wayward marl?

339
00:22:32,970 --> 00:22:37,905
No, uncle, I'll none:
Adam's sons are my brethren;

340
00:22:37,994 --> 00:22:41,018
and, truly, I do hold it a sin
to match in my kindred.

341
00:22:41,082 --> 00:22:42,797
Daughter, remember what I told you:

342
00:22:42,888 --> 00:22:46,348
if the prince do solicit in that kind,
you know your answer.

343
00:22:46,507 --> 00:22:50,263
The fault will be in the music, cousin,

344
00:22:50,377 --> 00:22:53,118
if you be not wooed in good time:

345
00:22:53,227 --> 00:22:57,886
if the prince be too important,
tell him there is measure in every thing

346
00:22:57,988 --> 00:23:00,111
and so dance out the answer.

347
00:23:00,248 --> 00:23:04,891
For, hear me, Hero:
wooing, wedding, and repenting,

348
00:23:05,044 --> 00:23:10,308
is as a Scotch jig,
a measure, and a cinque pace:

349
00:23:10,434 --> 00:23:16,831
the first suit is all hot
and hasty, like a Scotch jig,

350
00:23:16,983 --> 00:23:23,059
and full as fantastical;
the wedding, mannerly-modest,

351
00:23:23,157 --> 00:23:26,956
as a measure,
full of state and ancientry;

352
00:23:27,118 --> 00:23:31,510
and then comes
repentance and, with his bad legs,

353
00:23:31,626 --> 00:23:38,640
falls into the cinque pace faster and faster,
till he sink into his grave.

354
00:23:38,641 --> 00:23:41,326
Cousin, you apprehend passing shrewdly.

355
00:23:41,466 --> 00:23:45,852
I have a good eye, Uncle.
I can see a church by daylight.

356
00:23:47,301 --> 00:23:50,790
The revelers are entering!
Make good room.

357
00:25:33,207 --> 00:25:36,405
Lady, will you walk
about with your friend?

358
00:25:36,619 --> 00:25:41,582
So you walk softly
and look sweetly and say nothing,

359
00:25:41,677 --> 00:25:45,274
I am yours for the walk;
and especially when I walk away.

360
00:25:45,362 --> 00:25:48,780
- With me in your company?
- I may say so, when I please.

361
00:25:48,872 --> 00:25:52,022
- And when please you to say so?
- When I like your favour.

362
00:25:52,869 --> 00:25:56,876
Speak low, if you speak love.

363
00:26:07,254 --> 00:26:13,070
- Well, I would you did like me.
- So would not I, for your own sake;

364
00:26:13,169 --> 00:26:17,150
- for I have many ill-qualities.
- Which is one?

365
00:26:17,284 --> 00:26:19,327
I say my prayers aloud.

366
00:26:20,481 --> 00:26:24,496
I love you the better:
the hearers may cry, Amen.

367
00:26:24,570 --> 00:26:28,318
- God match me with a good dancer!
- Amen!

368
00:26:28,411 --> 00:26:32,189
And God keep him out of my sight
when the dance is done!

369
00:26:32,294 --> 00:26:34,959
No more words: the clerk is answered.

370
00:26:40,961 --> 00:26:44,062
I know you well enough.
You are my husband.

371
00:26:44,963 --> 00:26:46,932
At a word, I am not.

372
00:26:46,958 --> 00:26:48,843
I know you by the waggling
of your head.

373
00:26:49,168 --> 00:26:50,961
To tell you true, I counterfeit him.

374
00:26:51,064 --> 00:26:54,412
You could never do him so ill-well,
unless you were the very man.

375
00:26:54,559 --> 00:26:59,499
Here's his dry hand up and down:
you are he, you are he.

376
00:27:03,906 --> 00:27:09,519
- Will you not tell me who told you so?
- No, you shall pardon me.

377
00:27:10,574 --> 00:27:15,537
- Nor will you not tell me who you are?
- Not now.

378
00:27:16,708 --> 00:27:19,035
That I was disdainful,

379
00:27:19,152 --> 00:27:22,524
and that I had my good wit
out of the Hundred Merry Tales.

380
00:27:22,614 --> 00:27:26,417
This was Signior Benedick
that said so.

381
00:27:28,276 --> 00:27:29,896
What's he?

382
00:27:30,029 --> 00:27:34,482
- I am sure you know him well enough.
- Not I, believe me.

383
00:27:38,108 --> 00:27:42,220
- Did he never make you laugh?
- I pray you, what is he?

384
00:27:42,523 --> 00:27:45,273
Why, he is the prince's jester.

385
00:27:48,483 --> 00:27:50,731
A very dull fool.

386
00:27:50,837 --> 00:27:54,854
His only gift is in devising
impossible slanders.

387
00:27:55,644 --> 00:28:01,568
None but libertines delight in him, and the
commendation is not in his wit, but in his villany;

388
00:28:01,669 --> 00:28:04,486
for he both pleases men
and angers them,

389
00:28:04,555 --> 00:28:07,712
and then they laugh at him
and beat him.

390
00:28:08,857 --> 00:28:11,799
I am sure he is in the fleet.

391
00:28:12,825 --> 00:28:15,561
I would he had boarded me.

392
00:28:16,090 --> 00:28:19,557
When I know the gentleman,
I'll tell him what you say.

393
00:28:20,821 --> 00:28:23,582
Do. Do.

394
00:28:23,715 --> 00:28:26,630
he'll but break a comparison
or two on me;

395
00:28:26,710 --> 00:28:31,921
which, peradventure not marked or not laughed at,
strikes him into melancholy;

396
00:28:32,007 --> 00:28:38,005
and then there's a partridge wing saved,
for the fool will eat no supper that night.

397
00:28:39,034 --> 00:28:41,253
We must follow the leaders.

398
00:28:56,145 --> 00:28:58,117
Sure my brother is amorous on Hero

399
00:28:58,218 --> 00:29:00,849
and hath withdrawn her father
to break with him about it.

400
00:29:01,670 --> 00:29:05,704
- Are not you Signior Benedick?
- You know me well. I am he.

401
00:29:09,806 --> 00:29:12,210
Signior, you are very near my brother
in his love.

402
00:29:12,337 --> 00:29:15,244
He is enamored on Hero.
I pray you, dissuade him from her.

403
00:29:15,494 --> 00:29:18,746
She is no equal for his birth.
You may do the part of an honest man in it.

404
00:29:18,799 --> 00:29:21,403
- How know you he loves her?
- I heard him swear his affection.

405
00:29:21,482 --> 00:29:23,818
So did I, too.
He swore he would marry her tonight.

406
00:29:23,899 --> 00:29:25,811
Come, let us to the banquet.

407
00:29:29,961 --> 00:29:32,933
Thus answer I in name of Benedick,

408
00:29:33,092 --> 00:29:36,532
but hear these ill news
with the ears of Claudio.

409
00:29:36,996 --> 00:29:40,803
'Tis certain so.
The prince woos for himself!

410
00:29:40,989 --> 00:29:44,514
Friendship is constant
in all other things

411
00:29:44,615 --> 00:29:47,015
save in the office and affairs of love.

412
00:29:47,068 --> 00:29:50,845
Therefore, all hearts in love
use their own tongues;

413
00:29:50,963 --> 00:29:54,802
Let every eye negotiate for itself
and trust no agent;

414
00:29:54,891 --> 00:30:04,551
for beauty is a witch against whose charms
faith melteth into blood.

415
00:30:05,345 --> 00:30:09,835
This is an accident of hourly proof,
which I mistrusted not.

416
00:30:11,004 --> 00:30:13,611
Farewell, therefore, Hero!

417
00:30:13,755 --> 00:30:17,309
- Count Claudio.
- Yea, the same.

418
00:30:17,368 --> 00:30:19,204
- Come, will you go with me?
- Whither?

419
00:30:19,416 --> 00:30:22,159
Even to the next willow,
about your own business.

420
00:30:22,255 --> 00:30:25,777
What fashion will you wear
the garland of?

421
00:30:25,862 --> 00:30:28,799
About your neck,
like an usurer's chain?

422
00:30:29,023 --> 00:30:31,408
Or under your arm,
like a lieutenant's scarf?

423
00:30:31,493 --> 00:30:35,685
You must wear it one way,
for the prince hath got your Hero.

424
00:30:35,744 --> 00:30:41,581
- I wish him joy of her.
- Why, that's spoken like an honest drovier:

425
00:30:41,688 --> 00:30:43,066
so they sell bullocks.

426
00:30:43,402 --> 00:30:45,202
Did you think the prince
would have served you thus?

427
00:30:45,308 --> 00:30:48,738
- I pray you, leave me.
- Hey! now you strike like the blind man:

428
00:30:48,818 --> 00:30:51,527
'twas the boy that stole your meat,
and you'll beat the post.

429
00:30:51,586 --> 00:30:53,702
If it will not be, I'll leave you.

430
00:30:58,991 --> 00:31:02,304
Alas, poor hurt fowl!

431
00:31:03,214 --> 00:31:05,929
Now will he creep into sedges.

432
00:31:12,053 --> 00:31:17,041
But that my lady Beatrice
should know me, and not know me!

433
00:31:21,380 --> 00:31:25,451
The prince's fool? Ha!

434
00:31:27,448 --> 00:31:33,572
It may be I go
under that title because I am merry.

435
00:31:34,317 --> 00:31:35,957
Yea.

436
00:31:40,324 --> 00:31:41,869
So...

437
00:31:43,621 --> 00:31:46,639
I am apt to do myself wrong,
I am not so reputed:

438
00:31:46,746 --> 00:31:49,895
It is the base, though bitter,
disposition of Beatrice

439
00:31:50,001 --> 00:31:54,120
that puts the world into her person,
and so gives me out.

440
00:31:55,072 --> 00:31:56,244
Well...

441
00:32:00,515 --> 00:32:03,097
I'll be revenged as I may.

442
00:32:08,843 --> 00:32:11,356
Now, signior, where's the count?
Did you see him?

443
00:32:11,532 --> 00:32:15,199
My lord, I told him,
and I think I told him true,

444
00:32:15,307 --> 00:32:18,032
that your grace had got
the will of his Hero.

445
00:32:19,567 --> 00:32:21,881
And I offered him my company
to a willow-tree,

446
00:32:21,983 --> 00:32:23,968
either to make him a garland,
as being forsaken,

447
00:32:24,075 --> 00:32:27,206
or to bind him up a rod,
as being worthy to be whipped.

448
00:32:27,290 --> 00:32:29,442
To be whipped! What's his fault?

449
00:32:30,295 --> 00:32:33,588
The flat transgression of a schoolboy,

450
00:32:33,821 --> 00:32:39,876
who, being overjoyed with finding a birds' nest,
shows it his companion, and he steals it.

451
00:32:40,231 --> 00:32:43,991
Wilt thou make a trust a transgression?
The transgression is in the stealer.

452
00:32:44,098 --> 00:32:46,381
Yet it had not been amiss the rod
had been made, and the garland too;

453
00:32:46,451 --> 00:32:50,625
for the garland he might have worn himself,
and the rod he might have bestowed on you,

454
00:32:50,757 --> 00:32:55,124
who, as I take it,
have stolen his birds' nest.

455
00:32:56,147 --> 00:33:01,076
I will but teach them to sing,
and restore them to the owner.

456
00:33:03,177 --> 00:33:08,753
If their singing answer your saying,
by my faith, you say honestly.

457
00:33:10,927 --> 00:33:13,321
The Lady Beatrice hath a quarrel to you.

458
00:33:13,587 --> 00:33:16,249
The gentleman that danced with her
told her she is much wronged by you.

459
00:33:16,361 --> 00:33:21,442
She misused me past
the endurance of a block!

460
00:33:21,788 --> 00:33:25,398
an oak but with one green leaf on it
would have answered her;

461
00:33:25,467 --> 00:33:29,245
my very visor began to assume life and
scold with her.

462
00:33:29,517 --> 00:33:33,644
She told me, not thinking
I had been myself,

463
00:33:33,755 --> 00:33:36,971
that I was the prince's jester,

464
00:33:39,804 --> 00:33:42,818
that I was duller than a great thaw,

465
00:33:42,942 --> 00:33:45,848
huddling jest upon jest
with impossible conveyance upon me

466
00:33:45,943 --> 00:33:50,211
that I stood like a man at a mark
with a whole army shooting at me.

467
00:33:50,471 --> 00:33:54,606
She speaks poniards,
and every word stabs.

468
00:33:54,659 --> 00:33:57,013
If her breath were as terrible
as her terminations,

469
00:33:57,124 --> 00:34:01,540
there were no living near her;
she would infect to the north star.

470
00:34:02,531 --> 00:34:04,144
I would not marry her,

471
00:34:04,261 --> 00:34:09,656
though she were endowed with all
that Adam had left him before he transgressed:

472
00:34:09,924 --> 00:34:13,599
she would have made Hercules
have turned the spit,

473
00:34:13,706 --> 00:34:16,042
yea, and have cleft his club
to make the fire too.

474
00:34:16,105 --> 00:34:17,828
Come, talk not of her.

475
00:34:22,790 --> 00:34:26,095
I would to God
some scholar would conjure her;

476
00:34:26,175 --> 00:34:31,194
for certainly, while she is here, a man may live
as quiet in hell as in a sanctuary;

477
00:34:31,269 --> 00:34:34,720
and people sin upon purpose,
because they would go thither;

478
00:34:35,371 --> 00:34:42,738
So indeed, all disquiet, horror
and perturbation follow her.

479
00:34:42,887 --> 00:34:44,607
Look, here she comes.

480
00:34:48,884 --> 00:34:51,381
Will your grace command me
any service to the world's end?

481
00:34:51,450 --> 00:34:54,097
I will go on the slightest errand now
to the Antipodes

482
00:34:54,193 --> 00:34:55,625
that you can devise to send me on.

483
00:34:55,700 --> 00:35:00,668
I will fetch you a tooth-picker now from the
furthest inch of Asia,

484
00:35:00,891 --> 00:35:05,029
bring you the length of
Prester John's foot,

485
00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:08,474
I will fetch you a hair
off the great Cham's beard,

486
00:35:08,544 --> 00:35:11,136
do you any embassage to the pygmies,

487
00:35:11,236 --> 00:35:15,256
rather than endure three words' conference
with this harpy!

488
00:35:19,757 --> 00:35:21,540
You have no employment for me?

489
00:35:21,657 --> 00:35:23,851
None, but to desire your good company.

490
00:35:23,921 --> 00:35:25,076
Oh, God.

491
00:35:25,720 --> 00:35:30,308
Sir, here's a dish I love not.
I cannot endure my Lady Tongue!

492
00:35:37,894 --> 00:35:46,359
Come, lady, come. You have lost the heart
of Signior Benedick.

493
00:35:46,582 --> 00:35:47,806
Indeed, my lord.

494
00:35:47,944 --> 00:35:49,558
He lent it me awhile,

495
00:35:49,744 --> 00:35:51,884
and I gave him use for it -

496
00:35:52,077 --> 00:35:54,909
a double heart for his single one.

497
00:35:55,047 --> 00:35:57,759
Marry, once before he won it of me
with false dice.

498
00:35:57,844 --> 00:36:00,154
Therefore your grace may well say
I have lost it.

499
00:36:00,198 --> 00:36:05,379
You have put him down, lady,
you have put him down.

500
00:36:05,465 --> 00:36:07,014
So I would not he should do me, my lord,

501
00:36:07,088 --> 00:36:09,714
lest I should prove the mother of fools.

502
00:36:11,535 --> 00:36:15,121
I have brought you Count Claudio,
whom you sent me to seek.

503
00:36:19,755 --> 00:36:25,102
- How now, count! Wherefore are you sad?
- Not sad, my lord.

504
00:36:25,284 --> 00:36:27,883
- How then? Sick?
- Neither, my lord.

505
00:36:28,095 --> 00:36:33,540
The count is neither sad, nor sick,
nor merry, nor well,

506
00:36:33,685 --> 00:36:39,832
but civil count - civil as an orange,

507
00:36:40,093 --> 00:36:42,648
and something of that
jealous complexion.

508
00:36:42,712 --> 00:36:45,167
I' faith, lady,
I think your blazon to be true,

509
00:36:45,295 --> 00:36:49,725
though I'll be sworn, if he be so,
his conceit is false.

510
00:36:50,943 --> 00:36:52,742
Here, Claudio.

511
00:36:52,961 --> 00:36:56,621
I have wooed in thy name,
and fair Hero is won.

512
00:36:56,717 --> 00:36:59,198
I have broke with her father,
and his good will obtained.

513
00:37:00,044 --> 00:37:04,159
Name the day of marriage,
and God give thee joy!

514
00:37:04,217 --> 00:37:08,927
Count, take of me my daughter,
and with her my fortunes.

515
00:37:08,969 --> 00:37:13,684
His grace hath made the match,
and all grace say amen to it.

516
00:37:21,671 --> 00:37:23,811
Speak, Count. 'Tis your cue.

517
00:37:24,547 --> 00:37:27,416
Silence is the perfectest herald of joy.

518
00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:31,431
I were but little happy
if I could say how much.

519
00:37:32,704 --> 00:37:36,389
Lady, as you are mine,
I am yours.

520
00:37:36,613 --> 00:37:41,318
I give away myself for
you and dote upon the exchange.

521
00:37:43,512 --> 00:37:45,482
Speak, cousin,

522
00:37:45,631 --> 00:37:49,014
or if you cannot, stop his mouth with
a kiss, and let not him speak neither.

523
00:37:50,159 --> 00:37:53,233
In faith, lady, you have a merry heart.

524
00:37:53,392 --> 00:37:55,540
Yea, my lord, I thank it.

525
00:37:55,647 --> 00:37:58,314
Poor fool, it keeps
on the windy side of care.

526
00:37:59,241 --> 00:38:03,441
My cousin tells him in his ear
that he is in her heart.

527
00:38:03,638 --> 00:38:05,805
And so she doth, cousin.

528
00:38:05,990 --> 00:38:08,562
Good Lord, for alliance!

529
00:38:08,883 --> 00:38:15,513
Thus goes everyone to the world
but I, and I am sunburnt.

530
00:38:16,034 --> 00:38:20,103
I may sit in a corner and cry,
"Heigh-ho for a husband!"

531
00:38:24,646 --> 00:38:27,632
Lady Beatrice, I will get you one.

532
00:38:28,010 --> 00:38:30,836
I would rather have one
of your father's getting.

533
00:38:31,012 --> 00:38:34,444
Hath your grace ne'er
a brother like you?

534
00:38:35,104 --> 00:38:39,297
Your father got excellent husbands,
if only a maid could come by them.

535
00:38:40,729 --> 00:38:43,669
Will you have me, lady?

536
00:38:57,228 --> 00:38:59,565
No.

537
00:39:00,581 --> 00:39:01,833
My lord...

538
00:39:01,972 --> 00:39:06,069
Unless I might have another one
for working days.

539
00:39:10,630 --> 00:39:14,363
Your grace is too costly
to wear every day.

540
00:39:20,663 --> 00:39:23,168
But I beseech your grace, pardon me.

541
00:39:23,408 --> 00:39:27,022
I was born to speak all mirth
and no matter.

542
00:39:30,052 --> 00:39:32,846
Your silence most offends me,

543
00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:36,510
and to be merry best becomes you,

544
00:39:36,645 --> 00:39:40,430
for out of question,
you were born in a merry hour.

545
00:39:40,564 --> 00:39:43,239
No, sure, my lord, my mother cried.

546
00:39:45,872 --> 00:39:50,346
But then there was a star danced,
and under that was I born.

547
00:39:57,911 --> 00:40:00,985
Cousins, God give you joy.

548
00:40:01,087 --> 00:40:03,299
Niece, will you look to those things
I told you of?

549
00:40:03,410 --> 00:40:05,939
I cry you mercy, uncle.

550
00:40:08,864 --> 00:40:11,141
By your grace's pardon.

551
00:40:19,102 --> 00:40:24,490
By my troth, a pleasant-spirited lady.

552
00:40:24,580 --> 00:40:27,521
There's little of the
melancholy element in her, my lord.

553
00:40:27,665 --> 00:40:31,520
She is never sad but when she sleeps,
and not ever sad then,

554
00:40:31,620 --> 00:40:33,176
for I have heard my daughter say

555
00:40:33,309 --> 00:40:37,432
she hath often dreamt of unhappiness
and waked herself with laughing.

556
00:40:37,735 --> 00:40:40,057
She cannot endure
to hear tell of a husband.

557
00:40:40,105 --> 00:40:43,810
Oh, by no means.
She mocks all her wooers out of suit.

558
00:40:44,647 --> 00:40:49,156
She were an excellent wife
for Benedick.

559
00:40:49,582 --> 00:40:55,431
My lord, if they were but a week married,
they would talk themselves mad.

560
00:40:55,772 --> 00:40:57,455
How now, Claudio!

561
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:07,581
- When mean you to go to church?
- Tomorrow, my lord.

562
00:41:07,694 --> 00:41:10,283
Time goes on crutches till love
have all his rites.

563
00:41:10,390 --> 00:41:12,211
Not till Monday, my dear son,

564
00:41:12,290 --> 00:41:15,638
and a time too brief, too,
to have all things answer my mind.

565
00:41:15,776 --> 00:41:18,653
Come, you shake the head at so long a breathing:
but, I warrant thee, Claudio,

566
00:41:18,743 --> 00:41:21,301
the time shall not go dully by us.

567
00:41:21,364 --> 00:41:25,461
I will in the interim undertake
one of Hercules' labors,

568
00:41:25,594 --> 00:41:28,719
which is to bring Signior Benedick
and the lady Beatrice

569
00:41:28,847 --> 00:41:32,351
into a mountain of affection,
the one with the other.

570
00:41:32,404 --> 00:41:34,826
I would fain have it a match,

571
00:41:34,907 --> 00:41:39,315
and I doubt not but to fashion it,
if you will but minister assistance

572
00:41:39,411 --> 00:41:40,976
as I shall give you direction.

573
00:41:41,078 --> 00:41:44,185
My lord, I am for you,
though it cost me ten nights' watchings.

574
00:41:44,260 --> 00:41:46,342
- And I, my lord.
- And you too, gentle Hero?

575
00:41:46,464 --> 00:41:50,372
I will do any modest office, my lord,
to help my cousin to a good husband.

576
00:41:50,500 --> 00:41:53,521
And Benedick is not the
unhopefullest husband I know.

577
00:41:56,491 --> 00:41:59,805
Thus far can I praise him;
he is of a noble strain,

578
00:41:59,911 --> 00:42:02,717
of approved valour and confirmed honesty.

579
00:42:02,893 --> 00:42:07,362
I will teach you how to humour your cousin,
that she shall fall in love with him;

580
00:42:07,458 --> 00:42:11,248
and I, with your two helps,
will so practise on Benedick that,

581
00:42:11,339 --> 00:42:14,237
in despite of his quick wit
and his queasy stomach,

582
00:42:14,306 --> 00:42:17,747
he shall fall in love with Beatrice.

583
00:42:18,331 --> 00:42:21,740
If we can do this,
Cupid is no longer an archer.

584
00:42:22,417 --> 00:42:28,043
His glory shall be ours,
for we are the only love gods.

585
00:42:29,514 --> 00:42:31,775
Go in with me, I will tell you my drift.

586
00:42:40,801 --> 00:42:44,239
It is so; the Count Claudio shall
marry the daughter of Leonato.

587
00:42:44,329 --> 00:42:47,173
Yea, my lord; but I can cross it.

588
00:42:47,461 --> 00:42:50,583
Any bar, any cross, any impediment
will be medicinable to me:

589
00:42:50,780 --> 00:42:52,855
I am sick in displeasure to him,

590
00:42:53,004 --> 00:42:56,596
and whatsoever comes athwart his affection
ranges evenly with mine.

591
00:43:00,137 --> 00:43:02,017
How canst thou cross this marriage?

592
00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:08,204
Not honestly, my lord; but so covertly that no
dishonesty shall appear in me.

593
00:43:08,326 --> 00:43:09,753
Show me briefly how.

594
00:43:09,897 --> 00:43:12,543
I think I told your lordship a year since,

595
00:43:12,713 --> 00:43:17,263
how much I am in the favour of Margaret,
the waiting gentlewoman to Hero.

596
00:43:17,359 --> 00:43:20,795
I remember. What life is in that,
to be the death of this marriage?

597
00:43:20,855 --> 00:43:25,458
The poison of that lies in you to temper.

598
00:43:25,767 --> 00:43:29,083
Go you to the prince your brother;

599
00:43:29,218 --> 00:43:32,465
spare not to tell him
that he hath wronged his honour

600
00:43:32,571 --> 00:43:39,722
in marrying the renowned Claudio
--whose estimation do you mightily hold up--

601
00:43:41,018 --> 00:43:46,820
to a contaminated stale,
such a one as Hero.

602
00:43:46,916 --> 00:43:48,589
What proof shall I make of that?

603
00:43:48,749 --> 00:43:55,746
Proof enough to misuse the prince, to vex Claudio,
to undo Hero and kill Leonato.

604
00:43:55,815 --> 00:43:57,978
Look you for any other issue?

605
00:43:58,057 --> 00:44:00,116
Only to despite them,
I will endeavour any thing.

606
00:44:00,164 --> 00:44:06,528
Go, then; find me a meet hour to draw Don Pedro
and the Count Claudio alone:

607
00:44:06,709 --> 00:44:11,761
tell them that you know
that Hero loves me;

608
00:44:14,258 --> 00:44:17,378
They will scarcely believe this without trial:

609
00:44:17,527 --> 00:44:24,089
offer them instances; which shall bear no less
likelihood than to see me court her privately,

610
00:44:24,180 --> 00:44:27,508
hear me call Margaret Hero,

611
00:44:27,645 --> 00:44:32,078
and bring them to see this the very night
before the intended wedding,

612
00:44:32,137 --> 00:44:36,337
and there shall appear such seeming truth
of Hero's disloyalty

613
00:44:36,454 --> 00:44:41,820
that jealousy shall be called
assurance and all the preparation overthrown.

614
00:44:41,868 --> 00:44:44,892
Grow this to what adverse issue it can,
I will put it in practise.

615
00:44:44,977 --> 00:44:50,051
Be cunning in the working this, and
thy fee is a thousand ducats.

616
00:44:52,203 --> 00:44:59,905
Be you constant in the accusation,
and my cunning shall not shame me.

617
00:45:00,251 --> 00:45:02,710
I will presently go learn their day of marriage.

618
00:46:32,049 --> 00:46:33,721
Boy!

619
00:46:35,025 --> 00:46:36,537
Signior?

620
00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:44,877
In my chamber-window lies a book.

621
00:46:50,418 --> 00:46:53,866
Bring it hither to me.

622
00:46:54,133 --> 00:46:55,874
I am here already, sir.

623
00:47:01,482 --> 00:47:03,196
I know that.

624
00:47:05,319 --> 00:47:08,960
I would have thee hence,
and here again.

625
00:47:09,167 --> 00:47:10,403
A book?

626
00:47:10,552 --> 00:47:12,616
A book.

627
00:47:26,105 --> 00:47:34,056
I do much wonder that one man,
seeing how much another man is a fool

628
00:47:34,193 --> 00:47:37,572
when he dedicates
his behaviors to love,

629
00:47:38,020 --> 00:47:43,183
will, after he hath laughed
at such shallow follies in others,

630
00:47:43,316 --> 00:47:48,116
become the argument of his own scorn
by falling in love.

631
00:47:49,476 --> 00:47:53,556
And such a man is Claudio.

632
00:47:56,268 --> 00:48:00,995
I have known when there was no music
with him but the drum and the fife,

633
00:48:01,346 --> 00:48:06,997
and now would he rather hear
the tabor and the pipe.

634
00:48:08,366 --> 00:48:16,033
I have known when he would have walked
ten mile afoot to see a good armor,

635
00:48:16,230 --> 00:48:23,830
now will he lie ten nights awake,
carving the fashion of a new doublet.

636
00:48:24,974 --> 00:48:32,660
He was wont to speak plain and to the purpose
like an honest man and a soldier,

637
00:48:32,841 --> 00:48:39,024
and now is he turned orthography.

638
00:48:39,226 --> 00:48:43,575
His words are a very fantastical banquet,

639
00:48:43,702 --> 00:48:47,997
just so many strange dishes.

640
00:48:51,021 --> 00:48:55,432
Well, may I be so converted
and see with these eyes?

641
00:48:56,327 --> 00:49:01,090
I cannot tell. I think not.

642
00:49:02,082 --> 00:49:09,872
I will not be sworn, but love
may transform me to an oyster,

643
00:49:10,143 --> 00:49:12,130
but I'll take my oath on it,

644
00:49:12,438 --> 00:49:17,755
till he hath made an oyster of me,
he shall never make me such a fool.

645
00:49:19,847 --> 00:49:23,695
One woman is fair, yet I am well.

646
00:49:24,036 --> 00:49:32,032
Another is wise, yet I am well.
Another virtuous, yet I am well,

647
00:49:32,165 --> 00:49:35,490
but till all graces be in one woman,

648
00:49:35,724 --> 00:49:40,715
one woman shall not come in my grace.

649
00:49:51,666 --> 00:49:54,409
Rich she shall be, that's certain.

650
00:49:56,491 --> 00:49:58,434
Wise, or I'll none.

651
00:49:59,393 --> 00:50:03,997
Virtuous, or I'll never cheapen her.

652
00:50:05,142 --> 00:50:07,893
Fair, or I'll never look on her.

653
00:50:08,298 --> 00:50:18,362
Mild, or come not near me.
Noble, or not I for an angel;

654
00:50:19,288 --> 00:50:22,314
of good discourse,
an excellent musician,

655
00:50:22,479 --> 00:50:24,971
...and her hair shall be re...

656
00:50:25,258 --> 00:50:28,166
...of what colour it please God.

657
00:50:37,038 --> 00:50:40,366
The prince and Monsieur Love.

658
00:50:42,673 --> 00:50:44,174
I will hide me.

659
00:50:44,536 --> 00:50:46,150
Come, shall we hear this music?

660
00:50:46,244 --> 00:50:53,398
Yea, my good lord. How still the morning is,
as hush'd on purpose to grace harmony!

661
00:50:53,611 --> 00:50:56,925
- See you where Benedick hath hid himself?
- Very well, my lord.

662
00:50:57,820 --> 00:51:00,007
Come, Balthasar.
We'll hear that song again.

663
00:51:00,108 --> 00:51:06,722
O, good my lord, tax not so bad a voice
to slander music any more than once.

664
00:51:06,769 --> 00:51:08,692
I pray thee, sing, and let me woo no more.

665
00:51:08,756 --> 00:51:12,537
Because you talk of wooing, I will sing.

666
00:51:21,978 --> 00:51:24,588
Now is his soul ravished.

667
00:52:02,792 --> 00:52:07,862
Is it not strange that sheeps' guts
should hale souls out of men's bodies?

668
00:52:54,834 --> 00:52:56,671
By my troth, a good song.

669
00:52:56,793 --> 00:52:58,593
And an ill singer, my lord.

670
00:52:58,657 --> 00:53:00,366
No, no; thou singest
well enough for a shift.

671
00:53:00,467 --> 00:53:03,577
An' he had been a dog that should have
howled thus, they'd have hanged him.

672
00:53:03,747 --> 00:53:05,719
Yea, marry, Balthasar, dost thou hear?

673
00:53:05,858 --> 00:53:08,939
I pray thee, get us some excellent music
for tomorrow night.

674
00:53:09,098 --> 00:53:11,481
- The best I can, my lord.
- Do so: farewell.

675
00:53:17,230 --> 00:53:19,759
Come hither, Leonato.
What was it you told me of today?

676
00:53:19,892 --> 00:53:23,940
That your niece Beatrice
was in love with Signior Benedick?

677
00:53:25,202 --> 00:53:28,124
O, ay: stalk on, stalk on;
the fowl sits.

678
00:53:28,252 --> 00:53:30,891
I did never think that lady
would have loved any man.

679
00:53:30,981 --> 00:53:31,898
Nor I neither,

680
00:53:31,982 --> 00:53:36,168
but most wonderful that she
should so dote on Signior Benedick

681
00:53:36,243 --> 00:53:39,756
whom she hath in all outward
behaviors seemed ever to abhor.

682
00:53:39,831 --> 00:53:40,928
Is't possible?

683
00:53:41,030 --> 00:53:43,250
- Sits the wind in that corner?
- By my troth, my lord,

684
00:53:43,335 --> 00:53:47,513
I cannot tell what to think of it but that she loves
him with an enraged affection:

685
00:53:47,582 --> 00:53:49,105
it is past the infinite of thought.

686
00:53:49,190 --> 00:53:50,963
Maybe she doth but counterfeit?

687
00:53:51,054 --> 00:53:52,769
- Faith, like enough.
- Oh, God! Counterfeit?

688
00:53:52,853 --> 00:53:57,353
There was never counterfeit of passion
came so near the life of passion as she discovers it.

689
00:53:57,429 --> 00:53:59,494
Why, what effects of passion shows she?

690
00:53:59,554 --> 00:54:01,800
Bait the hook well. This fish will bite!

691
00:54:06,656 --> 00:54:10,553
What effects, my lord?
She will sit you...

692
00:54:10,669 --> 00:54:14,210
- You heard my daughter tell you how.
- How?

693
00:54:15,923 --> 00:54:18,968
How, I pray you?
You amaze me!

694
00:54:20,145 --> 00:54:25,207
I should have thought her spirit had been invincible
against all assaults of affection.

695
00:54:25,313 --> 00:54:27,842
I should think this a gull,
but that Leonato speaks it.

696
00:54:27,926 --> 00:54:30,195
Knavery cannot,
sure, hide himself in such reverence.

697
00:54:30,297 --> 00:54:35,061
- He hath taken the infection: hold it up.
- Has she made her affection known to Benedick?

698
00:54:35,140 --> 00:54:37,795
No, and swears she never will.
That's her torment.

699
00:54:37,881 --> 00:54:39,612
'Tis true, indeed; so your daughter says:

700
00:54:39,680 --> 00:54:43,165
"Shall I," says she, "that have so oft
encountered him with scorn,

701
00:54:43,234 --> 00:54:45,882
write to him that I love him?"

702
00:54:45,961 --> 00:54:49,148
Then she tears the letter
into a thousand pieces...

703
00:54:49,222 --> 00:54:51,435
Then down upon her knees she falls.

704
00:54:51,503 --> 00:54:53,835
Weeps, sobs, beats her heart,

705
00:54:53,947 --> 00:54:57,974
tears her hair, prays, curses,
"Oh, sweet Benedick!"

706
00:54:58,082 --> 00:55:00,033
"God give me patience!"

707
00:55:04,126 --> 00:55:06,197
She does indeed. My daughter says so.

708
00:55:06,330 --> 00:55:11,442
She rails at herself, that she should be so immodest
to write to one that she knows would flout her;

709
00:55:11,544 --> 00:55:15,609
and the ecstasy hath so much overborne her
that my daughter is sometime afeared

710
00:55:15,741 --> 00:55:19,112
she will do a desperate outrage to herself!

711
00:55:22,488 --> 00:55:25,061
It were good that Benedick
knew of it by some other,

712
00:55:25,170 --> 00:55:26,607
if she will not discover it.

713
00:55:26,717 --> 00:55:30,454
To what end? He would make but a sport of it
and torment the poor lady worse.

714
00:55:30,539 --> 00:55:32,019
An he should, it were an alms to hang him.

715
00:55:32,078 --> 00:55:34,565
She's an excellent sweet lady;

716
00:55:34,645 --> 00:55:36,812
and, out of all suspicion,
she is virtuous.

717
00:55:36,897 --> 00:55:40,039
- And she is exceeding wise.
- In every thing but in loving Benedick.

718
00:55:51,375 --> 00:55:56,366
I am sorry for her, as I have just
cause, being her uncle and her guardian.

719
00:55:56,473 --> 00:55:58,368
I would she had bestowed this dotage on me:

720
00:55:58,483 --> 00:56:01,958
I would have daffed all other respects
and made her half myself.

721
00:56:02,097 --> 00:56:04,757
I pray you, tell Benedick of it,
and hear what he will say.

722
00:56:04,843 --> 00:56:07,739
- Were it good, think you?
- Hero thinks surely she will die.

723
00:56:07,835 --> 00:56:09,741
For she says she will die
if he love her not,

724
00:56:09,821 --> 00:56:13,080
and she will die ere she make her love
known, and she will die if he woo her,

725
00:56:13,166 --> 00:56:18,599
rather than she will bate one breath of her
accustomed... crossness.

726
00:56:22,417 --> 00:56:26,857
If she should make tender of her affection,
'tis very possible he'll scorn it,

727
00:56:26,979 --> 00:56:30,570
for the man, as you know all,
hath a contemptible spirit.

728
00:56:33,004 --> 00:56:36,123
- He is a very proper man.
- He hath indeed a good outward happiness.

729
00:56:36,197 --> 00:56:38,140
Before God! and, in my mind, very wise.

730
00:56:42,289 --> 00:56:47,348
- He doth indeed show some sparks that are like wit.
- And I take him to be valiant.

731
00:56:56,482 --> 00:56:58,918
Well I am sorry for your niece.

732
00:56:59,002 --> 00:57:00,989
Shall we go seek Benedick,
and tell him of her love?

733
00:57:01,084 --> 00:57:04,850
Never tell him, my lord:
let her wear it out with good counsel.

734
00:57:04,929 --> 00:57:07,736
Nay, that's impossible:
she may wear her heart out first.

735
00:57:07,794 --> 00:57:10,748
Well, we will hear further of it by your daughter:
let it cool the while.

736
00:57:10,844 --> 00:57:14,126
I love Benedick well, and I could wish
he would modestly examine himself,

737
00:57:14,206 --> 00:57:18,834
to see how much he is unworthy
to have so good a lady.

738
00:57:21,613 --> 00:57:23,743
My lord, will you walk? Dinner is ready.

739
00:57:25,062 --> 00:57:29,429
If he do not dote on her upon this,
I will never trust my expectation.

740
00:57:29,593 --> 00:57:32,536
Let the same net be spread for Beatrice.

741
00:57:32,605 --> 00:57:34,529
That must your daughter
and her gentlewoman carry.

742
00:57:34,586 --> 00:57:37,422
Let us send her
to call him in to dinner.

743
00:57:54,551 --> 00:57:56,616
This can be no trick.

744
00:57:57,549 --> 00:58:02,210
The conference was sadly borne.
They have the truth of this from Hero.

745
00:58:03,126 --> 00:58:06,190
They seemed to pity the lady.

746
00:58:13,590 --> 00:58:17,569
It seems her affections have the full bent.

747
00:58:18,858 --> 00:58:21,187
Love me!

748
00:58:27,859 --> 00:58:29,584
Why?

749
00:58:31,629 --> 00:58:34,780
It must be requited.
I hear how I am censured.

750
00:58:34,887 --> 00:58:38,411
They say I will bear myself proudly
if I perceive the love come from her.

751
00:58:38,523 --> 00:58:42,344
They say too that she will rather die
than show any sign of affection.

752
00:58:42,414 --> 00:58:45,764
I did never think to marry.
I must not seem proud.

753
00:58:46,271 --> 00:58:51,326
Happy are those that hear their detractions
and can put them to mending.

754
00:58:53,115 --> 00:58:56,104
They say the lady is fair.

755
00:58:58,068 --> 00:59:01,870
'Tis a truth. I can bear them witness.

756
00:59:02,110 --> 00:59:05,233
And virtuous.
'Tis so. I cannot reprove it.

757
00:59:05,451 --> 00:59:08,250
And wise, but for loving me.

758
00:59:09,890 --> 00:59:13,815
By my troth,
that is no addition to her wit,

759
00:59:14,305 --> 00:59:19,145
nor no great argument of her folly,

760
00:59:20,215 --> 00:59:22,649
for I will be

761
00:59:23,075 --> 00:59:27,697
horribly in love with her!

762
00:59:40,811 --> 00:59:46,487
I may chance have some odd quirks
and remnants of wit broken on me

763
00:59:46,566 --> 00:59:50,953
because I have railed so long
against marriage, but...

764
00:59:55,131 --> 00:59:57,909
Doth not the appetite alter?

765
01:00:01,525 --> 01:00:05,788
A man loves the meat in his youth
he cannot endure in his age.

766
01:00:05,905 --> 01:00:09,506
Shall these quips and sentences
and paper bullets of the brain

767
01:00:09,614 --> 01:00:12,447
awe a man from the career
of his humor?

768
01:00:12,766 --> 01:00:14,704
No!

769
01:00:16,957 --> 01:00:21,867
The world must be... peopled!

770
01:00:28,055 --> 01:00:30,929
When I said I would die a bachelor,

771
01:00:31,025 --> 01:00:33,840
I did not think I would live
till I were married.

772
01:00:40,405 --> 01:00:42,515
Here comes Beatrice.

773
01:00:43,027 --> 01:00:45,823
By this day!
She's a fair lady.

774
01:01:07,740 --> 01:01:10,615
I do spy some marks of love in her.

775
01:01:12,372 --> 01:01:18,409
Against my will I am sent to bid you
come in to dinner.

776
01:01:19,473 --> 01:01:23,357
Fair Beatrice!
I thank you for your pain.

777
01:01:23,906 --> 01:01:29,097
I took no more pains for those thanks
than you took pains to thank me.

778
01:01:30,034 --> 01:01:35,722
If it had been painful,
I would not have come.

779
01:01:54,578 --> 01:01:56,928
You take pleasure,
then, in the message?

780
01:01:57,828 --> 01:02:05,417
Yea! Just so much as you may take
upon a knife's point,

781
01:02:05,731 --> 01:02:12,977
and choke a sparrow withal.

782
01:02:24,036 --> 01:02:27,127
You have no stomach, Signior:
fare you well.

783
01:02:33,859 --> 01:02:39,341
"Against my will I am sent
to bid you come in to dinner. "

784
01:02:41,110 --> 01:02:43,148
Double meaning in that!

785
01:02:49,854 --> 01:02:55,384
"I took no more pains for those thanks
than you took pains to thank me", well...

786
01:03:01,785 --> 01:03:07,501
That's as much as to say, any pains
that I take for you is as easy as thanks.

787
01:03:07,694 --> 01:03:11,164
If I do not take pity on her,
I am a villain...

788
01:03:17,851 --> 01:03:20,792
If I do not love her...

789
01:03:22,033 --> 01:03:24,211
I am a fool.

790
01:03:29,779 --> 01:03:31,733
I will go...

791
01:03:35,731 --> 01:03:38,086
...get her picture.

792
01:04:12,955 --> 01:04:16,268
Good Margaret, run thee to the parlor.

793
01:04:16,428 --> 01:04:21,087
There shalt thou find my cousin Beatrice
Proposing with the prince and Claudio:

794
01:04:21,177 --> 01:04:25,748
Whisper her ear and tell her,
I and your mother walk hereabout,

795
01:04:25,885 --> 01:04:29,846
and our whole discourse
is all of her;

796
01:04:29,920 --> 01:04:31,609
say that thou overheard'st us;

797
01:04:31,784 --> 01:04:35,276
and bid her steal where she can hide her
to listen to our purpose.

798
01:04:35,424 --> 01:04:38,783
This is thy office; bear thee well
in it and leave us alone.

799
01:04:38,867 --> 01:04:40,973
I'll make her come,
I warrant you, presently.

800
01:04:41,052 --> 01:04:46,344
Now, Ursula, when Beatrice doth come,
Our talk must only be of Benedick.

801
01:04:46,525 --> 01:04:49,886
When I do name him, let it be thy part

802
01:04:50,008 --> 01:04:53,093
To praise him more
than ever man did merit:

803
01:04:53,242 --> 01:04:58,750
My talk to thee must be how Benedick
is sick in love with Beatrice.

804
01:05:01,148 --> 01:05:04,973
Of this matter
is little Cupid's crafty arrow made,

805
01:05:05,095 --> 01:05:07,544
that only wounds by hearsay.

806
01:05:07,651 --> 01:05:10,392
Now begin; for look where Beatrice,
like a lapwing,

807
01:05:10,446 --> 01:05:13,093
runs close by the ground,
to hear our conference.

808
01:05:13,268 --> 01:05:17,669
The pleasant'st angling is to see the fish
cut with her golden oars the silver stream,

809
01:05:17,737 --> 01:05:20,993
and greedily devour the treacherous bait:

810
01:05:21,088 --> 01:05:23,181
so angle you and I for Beatrice.

811
01:05:23,313 --> 01:05:25,485
Fear you not my part of the dialogue.

812
01:05:25,955 --> 01:05:29,869
No, truly, Ursula, she is too disdainful;

813
01:05:29,997 --> 01:05:34,175
I know her spirits are as coy and wild
as haggerds of the rock.

814
01:05:34,255 --> 01:05:38,395
But are you sure that
Benedick loves Beatrice so entirely?

815
01:05:41,751 --> 01:05:45,924
So says the prince,
and my new-trothed lord.

816
01:05:45,982 --> 01:05:48,688
And did they bid you tell her of it,
madam?

817
01:05:48,740 --> 01:05:50,828
They did entreat me
to acquaint her of it,

818
01:05:50,935 --> 01:05:56,453
but I persuaded them,
if they loved Benedick,

819
01:05:56,575 --> 01:05:59,137
to wish him wrestle with affection,

820
01:05:59,266 --> 01:06:02,980
and never to let Beatrice know of it.

821
01:06:04,328 --> 01:06:09,692
Why did you so?
Doth not he deserve as full as fortunate

822
01:06:09,799 --> 01:06:13,432
a bed as ever Beatrice
shall couch upon?

823
01:06:13,517 --> 01:06:20,102
Oh, God of love! I know he doth deserve
as much as may be yielded to a man,

824
01:06:21,859 --> 01:06:28,117
but nature never framed a woman's heart
of prouder stuff than that of Beatrice.

825
01:06:28,244 --> 01:06:32,239
Disdain and scorn ride
sparkling in her eyes,

826
01:06:32,350 --> 01:06:34,490
misprising what they look on,

827
01:06:34,602 --> 01:06:39,661
and her wit values itself so highly,

828
01:06:39,767 --> 01:06:42,732
that to her, all matter else seems weak.

829
01:06:42,813 --> 01:06:44,595
She cannot love.

830
01:06:53,147 --> 01:07:00,162
Nor take no shape nor project of affection,
she is so self-endeared.

831
01:07:00,243 --> 01:07:03,626
Sure, I think so;
and therefore certainly it were not wise.

832
01:07:03,726 --> 01:07:06,365
she knew his love,
lest she make sport at it.

833
01:07:06,497 --> 01:07:08,326
Why, you speak truth.

834
01:07:13,516 --> 01:07:23,612
I never yet saw man, how wise,
how noble, young, how rarely featured,

835
01:07:24,656 --> 01:07:27,666
but she would spell him backward:

836
01:07:27,842 --> 01:07:32,197
if fair-faced, she would swear the gentleman
should be her sister;

837
01:07:32,302 --> 01:07:37,126
if black, why, Nature, drawing of an antique,
made a foul blot;

838
01:07:37,201 --> 01:07:42,714
if tall, a lance ill-headed;
if low, an agate very vilely cut;

839
01:07:42,804 --> 01:07:51,758
if speaking, why, a vane blown with all winds;
if silent, why, a block moved with none.

840
01:07:51,891 --> 01:07:57,026
So turns she every man the wrong side out.

841
01:07:57,144 --> 01:08:02,377
Sure, sure, such carping is not commendable.

842
01:08:02,462 --> 01:08:10,714
No, not to be so odd and from all fashions
as Beatrice is,

843
01:08:10,819 --> 01:08:12,582
cannot be commendable.

844
01:08:13,018 --> 01:08:20,253
But who dare tell her so? If I should speak,
she would mock me into air.

845
01:08:23,601 --> 01:08:27,248
She would laugh me
out of myself, press me to death with wit.

846
01:08:27,684 --> 01:08:32,395
Therefore let Benedick, like cover'd fire,

847
01:08:32,550 --> 01:08:35,498
Consume away in sighs, waste inwardly:

848
01:08:35,632 --> 01:08:39,892
It were a better death than die with mocks,
which is as bad as die with tickling.

849
01:08:39,940 --> 01:08:42,288
Yet tell her of it.
Hear what she will say.

850
01:08:42,380 --> 01:08:44,771
No, rather I will go to Benedick,

851
01:08:44,883 --> 01:08:47,380
and counsel him to fight
against his passion.

852
01:08:47,621 --> 01:08:53,246
And, truly, I'll devise some honest slanders
to stain my cousin with.

853
01:08:53,437 --> 01:09:00,687
One doth not know
how much an ill word may empoison liking.

854
01:09:00,820 --> 01:09:04,677
Do not do your cousin
such a wrong.

855
01:09:06,312 --> 01:09:10,828
She cannot be so much without
true judgment, having so swift and excellent wit,

856
01:09:10,961 --> 01:09:16,063
as she is prized to have, as to refuse
so rare a gentleman as Signior Benedick.

857
01:09:16,153 --> 01:09:20,807
- Indeed, he hath an excellent good name.
- His excellence did earn it, ere he had it.

858
01:09:22,206 --> 01:09:26,978
- When are you married, madam?
- Why, every day. Tomorrow!

859
01:09:27,046 --> 01:09:30,223
Come, go in: I'll show thee some attires,
and have thy counsel

860
01:09:30,346 --> 01:09:32,593
which is the best to furnish me tomorrow.

861
01:09:32,653 --> 01:09:35,736
She's limed, I warrant you.
We've caught her, madam.

862
01:09:35,795 --> 01:09:38,654
If it proves so,
then loving goes by haps.

863
01:09:38,803 --> 01:09:41,953
Some Cupid kills with arrows,
some with traps.

864
01:10:14,659 --> 01:10:16,236
What?

865
01:10:20,354 --> 01:10:23,715
Fire is in mine ears?
Can this be true?

866
01:10:24,584 --> 01:10:29,160
Stand I condemned
for pride and scorn so much?

867
01:10:29,495 --> 01:10:34,796
Contempt, farewell!
And maiden pride, adieu!

868
01:10:34,870 --> 01:10:36,979
No glory lives behind the back of such.

869
01:10:37,090 --> 01:10:40,073
And, Benedick...

870
01:10:41,797 --> 01:10:43,777
Love on!

871
01:10:44,692 --> 01:10:46,438
I will requite thee,

872
01:10:46,550 --> 01:10:49,512
taming my wild heart
to thy loving hand.

873
01:10:49,549 --> 01:10:53,912
If thou dost love,
my kindness shall incite thee

874
01:10:54,003 --> 01:10:55,995
to bind our loves up in a holy band.

875
01:10:56,186 --> 01:10:59,016
For others say thou dost deserve,

876
01:10:59,122 --> 01:11:04,365
and I believe it
better than reportingly!

877
01:11:34,913 --> 01:11:45,097
97, 98, 99,
99 and a half, 100!

878
01:12:11,623 --> 01:12:14,799
Are you good men and true?

879
01:12:15,169 --> 01:12:19,299
Yea, or else it were pity but they
should suffer salvation, body and soul.

880
01:12:19,416 --> 01:12:22,757
Nay, that were a punishment
too good for them,

881
01:12:22,831 --> 01:12:30,420
if they should have any allegiance in them,
being chosen for the prince's watch.

882
01:12:38,640 --> 01:12:42,368
Well, give them their charge,
neighbour Dogberry.

883
01:12:42,448 --> 01:12:46,911
First, who think you the most
desertless man to be constable?

884
01:12:46,996 --> 01:12:50,539
George Seacole; for they
can write and read.

885
01:12:55,081 --> 01:12:57,894
Come hither, neighbour Seacole.

886
01:12:58,378 --> 01:13:02,164
Seacole. God hath blessed
you with a good name.

887
01:13:02,323 --> 01:13:05,599
to be a well-favoured man is
the gift of fortune,

888
01:13:05,786 --> 01:13:09,343
but to write and read the language
comes by nature.

889
01:13:14,819 --> 01:13:17,890
You have: I knew it
would be your answer.

890
01:13:18,060 --> 01:13:20,223
Well, for your favour, sir,
why, give God thanks,

891
01:13:20,314 --> 01:13:23,485
and make no boast of it;
and for your writing and reading,

892
01:13:23,592 --> 01:13:27,406
let that appear when
there is no need for such vanity.

893
01:13:27,566 --> 01:13:30,562
You are thought here to be
the most fit and...

894
01:13:30,635 --> 01:13:33,576
...senseless man for the constable
of the watch,

895
01:13:33,629 --> 01:13:35,503
therefore bear you the lantern.

896
01:13:35,674 --> 01:13:37,864
There you go, congratulations,
welcome aboard.

897
01:13:37,923 --> 01:13:43,247
This is your charge:
you are to comprehend all vagrom men,

898
01:13:44,568 --> 01:13:47,858
you are to bid any man stand,
in the prince's name.

899
01:13:47,955 --> 01:13:50,143
How if he will not stand?

900
01:13:53,635 --> 01:13:57,083
Why, then take no note of him
but let him go.

901
01:13:58,345 --> 01:14:00,613
and presently call the
rest of the watch together,

902
01:14:00,687 --> 01:14:03,482
and thank God you are rid of a knave.

903
01:14:05,676 --> 01:14:10,097
If he will not stand when he is bidden,
he is none of the prince's subjects.

904
01:14:10,204 --> 01:14:14,672
True. And they are to meddle
with none but the prince's subjects.

905
01:14:14,833 --> 01:14:18,331
You shall also make no noise
in the streets.

906
01:14:18,981 --> 01:14:23,842
For the watch to babble and to talk
is most tolerable and not to be endured.

907
01:14:23,958 --> 01:14:26,530
We will rather sleep than talk.

908
01:14:27,392 --> 01:14:29,048
We know what
belongs to a watch.

909
01:14:29,128 --> 01:14:32,039
You speak like an ancient
and a most quiet watchman,

910
01:14:32,103 --> 01:14:34,610
for I cannot see how sleeping
should offend.

911
01:14:34,743 --> 01:14:37,724
Only, have a care
that your bills be not stolen.

912
01:14:37,896 --> 01:14:42,911
Well, you are to call at all the
ale-houses,

913
01:14:45,937 --> 01:14:48,730
and bid those that are drunk
get them to bed.

914
01:14:48,852 --> 01:14:50,483
How if they will not?

915
01:14:53,134 --> 01:14:56,271
Why, then, let them alone
till they are sober.

916
01:14:56,739 --> 01:14:58,694
If they make you not
then the better answer,

917
01:14:58,695 --> 01:15:00,777
you may say they are not the men
you took them for.

918
01:15:01,003 --> 01:15:01,993
Well, sir.

919
01:15:03,429 --> 01:15:06,911
If you meet a thief,

920
01:15:07,540 --> 01:15:10,596
you may suspect him,
by virtue of your office,

921
01:15:10,713 --> 01:15:11,981
to be no true man.

922
01:15:12,049 --> 01:15:13,311
And for such kind of men,

923
01:15:13,412 --> 01:15:15,782
the less you meddle or make with them,

924
01:15:15,862 --> 01:15:17,407
why, the more is for your honesty.

925
01:15:17,560 --> 01:15:21,208
If we know him to be a thief,
shall we not lay hands on him?

926
01:15:21,362 --> 01:15:24,090
Truly, by your office, you may.

927
01:15:24,234 --> 01:15:27,205
But I think they
that touch pitch will be defiled:

928
01:15:27,450 --> 01:15:31,416
the most peaceable
way for you, if you do take a thief,

929
01:15:31,533 --> 01:15:38,225
is to let him show himself what he is
and steal out of your company.

930
01:15:40,025 --> 01:15:43,998
You have been always called
a merciful man, partner.

931
01:15:44,078 --> 01:15:45,782
Truly, I would not
hang a dog by my will,

932
01:15:45,857 --> 01:15:48,130
much more a man
who hath any honesty in him.

933
01:15:48,258 --> 01:15:49,600
'Tis very true.

934
01:15:52,368 --> 01:15:54,599
This is the end of the charge.

935
01:15:55,020 --> 01:15:58,918
You, constable, are to present
the prince's own person.

936
01:15:59,030 --> 01:16:02,329
If you meet the prince in the night,
you may stay him.

937
01:16:02,409 --> 01:16:05,071
Nay, by'r our lady,
that I think a' cannot.

938
01:16:05,140 --> 01:16:06,556
Five shillings to one on't,

939
01:16:06,615 --> 01:16:09,043
with any man that knows
the statutes, he may stay him.

940
01:16:09,602 --> 01:16:12,895
Marry, not without
the prince be willing,

941
01:16:13,044 --> 01:16:15,810
for, indeed, the watch ought
to offend no man,

942
01:16:16,012 --> 01:16:18,791
and it is an offence to stay a
man against his will.

943
01:16:18,855 --> 01:16:20,387
By'r lady, I think it be so.

944
01:16:22,182 --> 01:16:23,859
Well, masters, good night.

945
01:16:23,928 --> 01:16:27,813
And, there be any matter
of weight chances, call up me.

946
01:16:29,459 --> 01:16:33,965
Keep your fellows' counsels
and your own; and good night.

947
01:16:34,162 --> 01:16:38,295
- Good night!
- Good night. Over.

948
01:16:39,228 --> 01:16:40,389
Come, neighbor!

949
01:16:41,166 --> 01:16:45,232
Well, constable,
we hear our charge.

950
01:16:45,374 --> 01:16:48,693
Let us sit here till two,
and then to bed.

951
01:16:55,921 --> 01:16:59,148
One word more, honest neighbors.
Over.

952
01:16:59,489 --> 01:17:00,852
Over!

953
01:17:01,161 --> 01:17:04,903
I pray you,
keep a watch about town,

954
01:17:05,041 --> 01:17:09,202
for the wedding being tomorrow,
there is a great coil tonight.

955
01:17:10,506 --> 01:17:11,737
Adieu.

956
01:17:12,055 --> 01:17:14,398
Be vigitant, I beseech you.

957
01:17:57,805 --> 01:18:03,800
I do but stay till your marriage be consummate,
and then go I toward Arragon.

958
01:18:03,869 --> 01:18:06,303
I'll bring you thither, my lord,
if you'll vouchsafe me.

959
01:18:06,372 --> 01:18:09,504
Nay, that would be as great a soil
in the gloss of your new marriage

960
01:18:09,600 --> 01:18:14,465
as to show a child his new coat
and forbid him to wear it.

961
01:18:14,571 --> 01:18:17,811
No, I will only be bold
with Benedick for his company,

962
01:18:17,896 --> 01:18:20,993
for, from the crown
of his head to the sole of his foot...

963
01:18:22,884 --> 01:18:25,189
...he is all mirth.

964
01:18:26,919 --> 01:18:31,011
He hath a heart as sound as a bell
and his tongue is the clapper,

965
01:18:31,074 --> 01:18:33,124
for what his heart thinks his
tongue speaks.

966
01:18:33,183 --> 01:18:39,160
Gallants, I am not as I have been.

967
01:18:39,857 --> 01:18:42,676
So say I. Methinks you are sadder.

968
01:18:42,706 --> 01:18:44,054
I hope he be in love!

969
01:18:44,149 --> 01:18:47,568
There's no true drop of blood in him,
to be truly touched with love:

970
01:18:47,674 --> 01:18:49,554
if he be sad, he wants money.

971
01:18:50,645 --> 01:18:51,997
I...

972
01:18:57,304 --> 01:18:59,285
...have the toothache.

973
01:19:00,222 --> 01:19:03,160
- Draw it!
- Hang it!
- You must hang it first, and draw it afterwards.

974
01:19:03,224 --> 01:19:05,051
What! sigh for the toothache?

975
01:19:05,152 --> 01:19:07,075
Well, every one can master a grief
but he that has it.

976
01:19:07,133 --> 01:19:08,581
Yet say I, he is in love.

977
01:19:08,645 --> 01:19:13,265
- Hath any man seen him at the barber's?
- No, but the barber's man hath been seen with him.

978
01:19:13,324 --> 01:19:15,991
Indeed, he looks younger than he did,
by the loss of a beard.

979
01:19:16,083 --> 01:19:17,488
And when was he wont
to wash his face?

980
01:19:17,605 --> 01:19:21,549
Yea, or to paint himself? for the which,
I hear what they say of him.

981
01:19:21,624 --> 01:19:27,547
Indeed, that tells a heavy tale for him:
conclude he is in love.

982
01:19:27,637 --> 01:19:28,947
Nay, but I know who loves him.

983
01:19:29,039 --> 01:19:31,334
That would I know too: I warrant,
one that knows him not.

984
01:19:31,434 --> 01:19:35,374
Yes, and his ill conditions; and,
in despite of all, dies for him.

985
01:19:35,500 --> 01:19:39,822
She shall be buried
with her face upwards.

986
01:19:39,944 --> 01:19:42,740
Yet is this no charm
for the toothache.

987
01:19:42,832 --> 01:19:44,061
Old signior, walk aside with me:

988
01:19:44,140 --> 01:19:47,646
I have studied eight or nine
wise words to speak to you,

989
01:19:47,805 --> 01:19:50,645
which these hobby-horses
must not hear.

990
01:19:51,659 --> 01:19:53,901
For my life, to break
with him about Beatrice!

991
01:19:53,986 --> 01:19:56,864
'Tis even so. Hero and Ursula have by this
played their parts with Beatrice;

992
01:19:57,014 --> 01:20:00,945
and then the two bears will not bite
one another when they meet.

993
01:21:31,808 --> 01:21:33,629
Oh, no.

994
01:21:36,727 --> 01:21:39,803
- My lord and brother, God save you.
- Good evening, brother.

995
01:21:39,956 --> 01:21:42,550
If your leisure served,
I would speak with you.

996
01:21:43,311 --> 01:21:45,297
- In private?
- If it please you.

997
01:21:46,989 --> 01:21:49,775
Yet Count Claudio may hear,
for what I would speak of concerns him.

998
01:21:49,827 --> 01:21:50,739
What's the matter?

999
01:21:50,829 --> 01:21:53,218
- Means your lordship to be married tomorrow?
- You know he does.

1000
01:21:53,314 --> 01:21:54,784
I know not that,
when he knows what I know.

1001
01:21:54,838 --> 01:21:57,638
If there be any impediment,
I pray you discover it.

1002
01:21:57,702 --> 01:22:01,185
You may think I love you not,
but let that appear here after

1003
01:22:01,265 --> 01:22:03,576
and e'en better than me,
by that I now will manifest.

1004
01:22:03,709 --> 01:22:05,956
For my brother,
I think he holds you well,

1005
01:22:06,105 --> 01:22:09,915
and in dearness of heart hath help to effect
your ensuing marriage,

1006
01:22:10,001 --> 01:22:12,506
surely suit ill spent and
labour ill bestowed.

1007
01:22:12,549 --> 01:22:14,881
- Why, what's the matter?
- I came hither to tell you,

1008
01:22:14,966 --> 01:22:18,494
and, circumstances shortened,
for she has been too long a talking of,

1009
01:22:19,325 --> 01:22:21,215
the lady is disloyal.

1010
01:22:21,306 --> 01:22:23,244
Who, Hero?

1011
01:22:23,308 --> 01:22:27,116
Even she; Leonato's Hero,
your Hero, every man's Hero.

1012
01:22:27,185 --> 01:22:28,362
Disloyal?

1013
01:22:28,457 --> 01:22:32,530
The word is too good to paint out her wickedness;
I could say she were worse.

1014
01:22:32,631 --> 01:22:34,547
Think you of a worse title,
and I will fit her to it.

1015
01:22:34,670 --> 01:22:36,910
Wonder not till further warrant.

1016
01:22:36,989 --> 01:22:40,107
Go but with me tonight,
you shall see the proof

1017
01:22:40,166 --> 01:22:42,045
even the night
before her wedding-day.

1018
01:22:42,114 --> 01:22:43,897
If you love her then,
tomorrow wed her,

1019
01:22:43,961 --> 01:22:46,334
but it would better fit your honour
to change your mind.

1020
01:22:46,387 --> 01:22:48,671
- May this be so?
- I will not think it.

1021
01:22:48,725 --> 01:22:51,995
If you dare not trust that you see,
confess not that you know.

1022
01:22:52,091 --> 01:22:54,009
If you will follow me,
I will show you enough,

1023
01:22:54,115 --> 01:22:56,847
and when you have seen more
and heard more, proceed accordingly.

1024
01:23:05,105 --> 01:23:08,940
If I see any thing tonight
why I should not marry her

1025
01:23:09,866 --> 01:23:12,246
in the congregation tomorrow,
where I should wed,

1026
01:23:13,235 --> 01:23:15,388
there will I shame her.

1027
01:23:15,595 --> 01:23:20,575
And, as I wooed for thee to obtain her,
I will join with thee to disgrace her.

1028
01:23:20,745 --> 01:23:24,132
I will disparage her no farther
till you are my witnesses.

1029
01:23:25,118 --> 01:23:29,673
Bear it coldly but till midnight, and
let the issue show itself.

1030
01:23:29,748 --> 01:23:34,179
- O day untowardly turned!
- O mischief strangely thwarting!

1031
01:23:34,279 --> 01:23:37,108
O plague right well prevented!

1032
01:23:46,298 --> 01:23:49,256
So will you say when
you have seen the sequel.

1033
01:26:20,900 --> 01:26:25,605
- What, Conrade!
- Peace! Stir not.

1034
01:26:25,706 --> 01:26:27,731
- Comrade, I say!
- Here, man.

1035
01:26:28,070 --> 01:26:29,524
I am at thy elbow.

1036
01:26:29,721 --> 01:26:33,481
Mass, and my elbow itched.
I thought there would a scab follow.

1037
01:26:33,572 --> 01:26:35,165
I will owe thee an answer for that.

1038
01:26:35,725 --> 01:26:38,452
- Now, forward with thy tale.
- Stand thee close, then.

1039
01:26:38,532 --> 01:26:41,226
Under this pent-house,
for it drizzles rain.

1040
01:26:41,530 --> 01:26:45,412
And I will, like a true drunkard,
utter all to thee.

1041
01:26:45,508 --> 01:26:47,255
Some treason! Stand close!

1042
01:26:47,336 --> 01:26:48,687
Didst thou not hear somebody?

1043
01:26:48,767 --> 01:26:51,429
No, he marks us not.

1044
01:26:52,473 --> 01:26:58,302
Therefore know I have earned
of Don John a thousand ducats.

1045
01:26:58,356 --> 01:27:01,242
Is it possible that any villany
should be so dear?

1046
01:27:01,454 --> 01:27:06,416
Thou shouldst rather ask if it were possible
any villany should be so rich.

1047
01:27:06,554 --> 01:27:10,215
For when rich villains
have need of poor ones,

1048
01:27:10,327 --> 01:27:13,353
poor ones may make what
price they will.

1049
01:27:13,422 --> 01:27:16,456
- I wonder at it.
- That shows thou art unconfirmed.

1050
01:27:16,638 --> 01:27:21,721
Know that I have tonight
wooed Margaret,

1051
01:27:21,774 --> 01:27:24,335
the lady Hero's gentlewoman,

1052
01:27:24,468 --> 01:27:28,216
by the name of Hero!

1053
01:27:28,887 --> 01:27:30,873
I tell this tale vilely.

1054
01:27:30,958 --> 01:27:35,093
I should first tell thee
how the prince and Claudio,

1055
01:27:35,177 --> 01:27:39,089
planted and placed and possessed
by my master Don John,

1056
01:27:39,217 --> 01:27:43,089
saw afar off this amiable encounter.

1057
01:27:43,163 --> 01:27:44,681
And thought they Margaret was Hero?

1058
01:27:44,766 --> 01:27:48,660
Two of them did, the prince and Claudio,
but the devil my master knew she was Margaret.

1059
01:27:48,788 --> 01:27:52,053
And partly by his oaths,
which first possessed them,

1060
01:27:52,122 --> 01:27:55,474
partly by the dark night,
which did deceive them,

1061
01:27:55,538 --> 01:27:58,802
but chiefly by my villany,

1062
01:27:58,850 --> 01:28:02,658
which did confirm any slander that
Don John had made,

1063
01:28:02,711 --> 01:28:07,211
away went Claudio enraged.

1064
01:28:07,296 --> 01:28:12,339
Swore he would meet with her,
as appointed, next morning,

1065
01:28:12,438 --> 01:28:17,831
and there, before
the whole congregation,

1066
01:28:17,954 --> 01:28:21,879
shame her with what
he saw o'er night

1067
01:28:21,959 --> 01:28:25,053
and send her home again
without a husband.

1068
01:28:25,350 --> 01:28:28,052
We charge you
in the prince's name, stand!

1069
01:28:31,609 --> 01:28:33,274
Call up the right Master Constable.

1070
01:28:33,600 --> 01:28:35,824
We have here the most
dangerous piece of lechery

1071
01:28:35,914 --> 01:28:37,672
ever known in the commonwealth.

1072
01:28:37,756 --> 01:28:39,641
Masters, masters!
