Come； Sir Andrew； there's no remedy； the gentleman will； for his honour's
sake； have one bout with you； he cannot by the duello avoid it； but he has
promis'd me； as he is a gentleman and a soldier； he will not hurt you。

TWELFTH NIGHT； OR； WHAT YOU WILL
Come on； to't。 AGUECHEEK。 Pray God he keep his oath！ ＇They draw＇
Enter ANTONIO
VIOLA。 I do assure you 'tis against my will。 ANTONIO。 Put up your
sword。 If this young gentleman Have done offence； I take the fault on me：
If you offend him； I for him defy you。 SIR TOBY。 You； sir！ Why； what are
you？ ANTONIO。 One； sir； that for his love dares yet do more Than you
have heard him brag to you he will。 SIR TOBY。 Nay； if you be an
undertaker； I am for you。 ＇They draw＇
Enter OFFICERS
FABIAN。 O good Sir Toby； hold！ Here come the officers。 SIR TOBY。
＇To ANTONIO＇ I'll be with you anon。 VIOLA。 Pray； sir； put your sword
up； if you please。 AGUECHEEK。 Marry； will I； sir； and for that I promis'd
you； I'll be as good as my word。 He will bear you easily and reins well。
FIRST OFFICER。 This is the man； do thy office。 SECOND OFFICER。
Antonio； I arrest thee at the suit Of Count Orsino。 ANTONIO。 You do
mistake me； sir。 FIRST OFFICER。 No； sir； no jot； I know your favour well；
Though now you have no sea…cap on your head。 Take him away； he knows
I know him well。 ANTONIO。 I Must obey。 ＇To VIOLA＇ This comes with
seeking you； But there's no remedy； I shall answer it。 What will you do；
now my necessity Makes me to ask you for my purse？ It grieves me Much
more for what I cannot do for you Than what befalls myself。 You stand
amaz'd； But be of comfort。 SECOND OFFICER。 Come； sir； away。
ANTONIO。 I must entreat of you some of that money。 VIOLA。 What
money； sir？ For the fair kindness you have show'd me here； And part being
prompted by your present trouble； Out of my lean and low ability I'll lend
you something。 My having is not much； I'll make division of my present
with you； Hold； there's half my coffer。 ANTONIO。 Will you deny me now？
Is't possible that my deserts to you Can lack persuasion？ Do not tempt my
misery； Lest that it make me so unsound a man As to upbraid you with
those kindnesses That I have done for you。 VIOLA。 I know of none； Nor
know I you by voice or any feature。 I hate ingratitude more in a man Than
lying； vainness； babbling drunkenness； Or any taint of vice whose strong
corruption Inhabits our frail blood。 ANTONIO。 O heavens themselves！
SECOND OFFICER。 Come； sir； I pray you go。 ANTONIO。 Let me speak

TWELFTH NIGHT； OR； WHAT YOU WILL
a little。 This youth that you see here I snatch'd one half out of the jaws of
death； Reliev'd him with such sanctity of love； And to his image； which
methought did promise Most venerable worth； did I devotion。 FIRST
OFFICER。 What's that to us？ The time goes by； away。 ANTONIO。 But； O；
how vile an idol proves this god！ Thou hast； Sebastian； done good feature
shame。 In nature there's no blemish but the mind： None can be call'd
deform'd but the unkind。 Virtue is beauty； but the beauteous evil Are
empty trunks； o'erflourish'd by the devil。 FIRST OFFICER。 The man
grows mad。 Away with him。 Come； come； sir。 ANTONIO。 Lead me on。
Exit with OFFICERS VIOLA。 Methinks his words do from such passion
fly That he believes himself； so do not I。 Prove true； imagination； O； prove
true； That I； dear brother； be now ta'en for you！ SIR TOBY。 Come hither；
knight； come hither； Fabian； we'll whisper o'er a couplet or two of most
sage saws。 VIOLA。 He nam'd Sebastian。 I my brother know Yet living in
my glass； even such and so In favour was my brother； and he went Still in
this fashion； colour； ornament； For him I imitate。 O； if it prove； Tempests
are kind； and salt waves fresh in love！ Exit SIR TOBY。 A very dishonest
paltry boy； and more a coward than a hare。 His dishonesty appears in
leaving his friend here in necessity and denying him； and for his
cowardship； ask Fabian。 FABIAN。 A coward； a most devout coward；
religious in it。 AGUECHEEK。 'Slid； I'll after him again and beat him。 SIR
TOBY。 Do； cuff him soundly； but never draw thy sword。 AGUECHEEK。
And I do not… Exit FABIAN。 Come； let's see the event。 SIR TOBY。 I dare
lay any money 'twill be nothing yet。 Exeunt

TWELFTH NIGHT； OR； WHAT YOU WILL
SCENE I。 Before OLIVIA'S house
Enter SEBASTIAN and CLOWN
CLOWN。 Will you make me believe that I am not sent for you？
SEBASTIAN。 Go to； go to； thou art a foolish fellow； let me be clear of
thee。 CLOWN。 Well held out； i' faith！ No； I do not know you； nor I am not
sent to you by my lady； to bid you come speak with her； nor your name is
not Master Cesario； nor this is not my nose neither。 Nothing that is so is so。
SEBASTIAN。 I prithee vent thy folly somewhere else。 Thou know'st not
me。 CLOWN。 Vent my folly！ He has heard that word of some great man；
and now applies it to a fool。 Vent my folly！ I am afraid this great lubber；
the world； will prove a cockney。 I prithee now； ungird thy strangeness； and
tell me what I shall vent to my lady。 Shall I vent to her that thou art
coming？ SEBASTIAN。 I prithee； foolish Greek； depart from me； There's
money for thee； if you tarry longer I shall give worse payment。 CLOWN。
By my troth； thou hast an open hand。 These wise men that give fools
money get themselves a good report after fourteen years' purchase。
Enter SIR ANDREW； SIR TOBY； and FABIAN
AGUECHEEK。 Now； sir； have I met you again？ ＇Striking
SEBASTIAN＇ There's for you。 SEBASTIAN。 Why； there's for thee； and
there； and there。 Are all the people mad？ SIR TOBY。 Hold； sir； or I'll throw
your dagger o'er the house。 ＇Holding SEBASTIAN＇ CLOWN。 This will I
tell my lady straight。 I would not be in some of your coats for two…pence。
Exit SIR TOBY。 Come on； sir； hold。 AGUECHEEK。 Nay； let him alone。
I'll go another way to work with him； I'll have an action of battery against
him； if there be any law in Illyria； though I struck him first； yet it's no
matter for that。 SEBASTIAN。 Let go thy hand。 SIR TOBY。 Come； sir； I
will not let you go。 Come； my young soldier； put up your iron； you are
well flesh'd。 Come on。 SEBASTIAN。 I will be free from thee。 What
wouldst thou now？ If thou dar'st tempt me further； draw thy sword。
＇Draws＇ SIR TOBY。 What； what？ Nay； then I must have an ounce or two
of this malapert blood from you。 ＇Draws＇
Enter OLIVIA
OLIVIA。 Hold； Toby； on thy life； I charge thee hold。 SIR TOBY。

TWELFTH NIGHT； OR； WHAT YOU WILL
Madam！ OLIVIA。 Will it be ever thus？ Ungracious wretch； Fit for the
mountains and the barbarous caves； Where manners ne'er were preach'd！
Out of my sight！ Be not offended； dear Cesario… Rudesby； be gone！ Exeunt
SIR TOBY； SIR ANDREW； and FABIAN I prithee； gentle friend； Let thy
fair wisdom； not thy passion； sway In this uncivil and unjust extent
Against thy peace。 Go with me to my
