Act. III. Sc. iii.
If I depart from thee 3 I cannot live;
And in thy sight to die, what were it else
But like a pleasant slumber in thy lap ?
Here could I breathe my soul into the air;
As mild and gentle as the cradle-babe,
Dying with mother's dug between its lips; 28
Act. V. Sc. i.
It is great sin to swear unto a sin,
But greater sin to keep a sinful oath.
Who can be bound by any solemn vow
To do a murderous deed,, to -rob a man,
To force a spotless virgin's chastity,
To reave the orphan of his' patrimony,'
To wring the widow from her customed right,
And have no other reason for this wrong,
But that he was bound by a solemn oath ? 29
Sc. ii.
He that is truly dedicate to war
Hath no self-love; nor he that loves himself
Hath not essentially, but by circumstance.
The name of valour. 30
