sign of affection。 I did never think to marry。 I must not seem proud。 Happy 

are they that hear their detractions and can put them to mending。 They say 

the lady is fair'tis a truth�察�I can bear them witness�察�and virtuous'tis so�察�I 

cannot   reprove   it�察  �and   wise�察  �but   for   loving   meby   my   troth�察  �it   is   no 

addition   to   her   wit�察  �nor   no   great   argument   of   her   folly�察  �for   I   will   be 

horribly     in  love    with   her。   I  may    chance    have    some     odd   quirks    and 

remnants   of   wit   broken       on   me   because   I   have   railed   so   long    against 

marriage。   But   doth   not   the   appetite   alters�拭�A  man   loves   the   meat   in   his 

youth that he cannot endure in his age。 Shall quips and sentences and these 

paper bullets of the brain awe a man from the career of his humour�拭�No�察�

the world must be peopled。 When I said I would die a bachelor�察�I did not 

think I should live till I were married。 

       ��Enter Beatrice。�А�

     Here   comes   Beatrice。   By   this   day�察  �she's   a   fair   lady�   �I   do   spy   some 

marks of love in her。 

     Beat。 Against my will I am sent to bid You come in to dinner。 

     Bene。 Fair Beatrice�察�I thank you for your pains。 

     Beat。   I   took   no   more   pains   for   those   thanks   than   you   take   pains   to 

thank me。 If it had been painful�察�I would not have come。 

     Bene。 You take pleasure then in the message�拭�

     Beat。   Yea�察  �just   so   much   as   you   may   take   upon   a   knives   point�察  �and 

choke a daw withal。 You have no stomach�察�signior。 Fare you well。 ��Exit。�А�

     Bene。 Ha� �'Against my  will I am sent to bid you come in to dinner。'

There's a double meaning in that。 'I took no more pains for those thanks 

than you took pains to thank me。' That's as much as to say�察�'Any pains that 

I   take   for   you   is   as   easy  as   thanks。'   If   I   do   not   take   pity  of   her�察  �I   am   a 

villain�察�if I do not love her�察�I am a Jew。 I will go get her picture。 ��Exit。�А�

                                      SCENE I。 



     Leonato's orchard。 

     ��Enter Hero and two Gentlewomen�察�Margaret and Ursula。�А�

    Hero。 Good Margaret�察�run thee to the parlour。 There shalt thou find my 

cousin Beatrice Proposing with the Prince and Claudio。 Whisper her   ear 

and tell her�察�I and Ursley Walk in the orchard�察�and our whole discourse Is 

all of her。 Say that thou overheard'st us�察�And bid her steal into the pleached 

bower�察�Where honeysuckles�察�ripened by the sun�察�Forbid the sun to enter 

like favourites�察 �Made   proud   by  princes�察�that   advance their pride Against 

that power that bred it。 There will she hide her To listen our propose。 This 

is thy office。 Bear thee well in it and leave us alone。 

    Marg。 I'll make her come�察�I warrant you�察�presently。 ��Exit。�А�

    Hero。   Now�察  �Ursula�察  �when   Beatrice   doth   come�察  �As   we   do   trace   this 

alley up and down�察�Our talk must only be of Benedick。 When I do name 

him�察�let it be thy part To praise him more than ever man did merit。 My talk 

to thee must be how Benedick Is sick in love with Beatrice。 Of this matter 

Is little Cupid's crafty arrow made�察�That only wounds by hearsay。 

       ��Enter Beatrice。�А�

    Now begin�察�For look where Beatrice like a lapwing runs Close by the 

ground�察�to hear our conference。 

       ��Beatrice hides in the arbour�А� 

    Urs。 The pleasant'st angling is to see the fish Cut with her golden oars 

the silver stream And greedily devour the treacherous bait。 So angle we for 

Beatrice�察�who even now Is couched in the woodbine coverture。 Fear you 

not my part of the dialogue。 

    Hero。 Then go we near her�察�that her ear lose nothing Of the false sweet 

bait that we lay for it。 

       ��They approach the arbour。�А�

    No�察�truly�察�Ursula�察�she is too disdainful。 I know her spirits are as coy 

and wild As haggards of the rock。 

    Urs。 But are you sure That Benedick loves Beatrice so entirely�拭�

    Hero。 So says the Prince�察�and my new´trothed lord。 

    Urs。 And did they bid you tell her of it�察�madam�拭�

     Hero。 They did entreat me to acquaint her of it�察�But I persuaded them�察�

if they lov'd Benedick�察�To wish him wrestle with affection And never to let 

Beatrice know of it。 

     Urs。   Why   did   you   so�拭  �Doth   not   the   gentleman   Deserve   as   full�察  �as 

fortunate a bed As ever Beatrice shall couch upon�拭�

     Hero。   O   god   of   love�   �I   know   he   doth   deserve   As   much   as   may   be 

yielded   to   a   man�此  �But   Nature   never   fram'd   a   woman's   heart   Of   prouder 

stuff than that of  Beatrice。 Disdain and scorn  ride sparkling in her  eyes�察�

Misprizing what they look on�察�and her wit Values itself so highly that to 

her All matter else seems weak。 She cannot love�察�Nor take no shape nor 

project of affection�察�She is so self´endeared。 

     Urs。   Sure   I   think   so�察  �And   therefore   certainly   it   were   not   good   She 

knew his love�察�lest she'll make sport at it。 

     Hero。   Why�察  �you   speak   truth。   I   never   yet   saw   man�察  �How   wise�察  �how 

noble�察�young�察�how rarely featur'd�察�But she would spell him backward。 If 

fair´fac'd�察�She would swear the gentleman should be her sister�察�If black�察�

why�察  �Nature�察  �drawing   of   an   antic�察  �Made   a   foul   blot�察  �if   tall�察  �a   lance   ill´ 

headed�察�If low�察�an agate very vilely cut�察�If speaking�察�why�察�a vane blown 

with all winds�察�If silent�察�why�察�a block moved with none。 So turns she every 

man   the   wrong   side   out And   never   gives   to   truth   and   virtue   that Which 

simpleness and merit purchaseth。 

     Urs。 Sure�察�sure�察�such carping is not commendable。 

     Hero。   No�察  �not   to   be   so   odd�察  �and   from   all   fashions�察  �As   Beatrice   is�察�

cannot be commendable。 But who dare tell her so�拭�If I should speak�察�She 

would mock me into air�察�O�察�she would laugh me Out of myself�察�press me 

to death with wit� �Therefore let Benedick�察�like cover'd fire�察�Consume away 

in   sighs�察  �waste   inwardly。   It   were   a   better   death   than   die   with   mocks�察�

Which is as bad as die with tickling。 

     Urs。 Yet tell her of it。 Hear what she will say。 

     Hero。   No�察  �rather   I   will   go   to   Benedick   And   counsel   him   to       fight 

against his passion。 And truly�察�I'll devise some honest slanders To stain my 

cousin   with。   One   doth   not   know   How   much   an   ill   word   may   empoison 

liking。 

     Urs。 O�察�do not do your cousin such a wrong� �She cannot be so much

without true judgment ��Having so swift and excellent a wit As she is priz'd 

to have�� as to refuse So rare a gentleman as Signior Benedick。 

     Hero。 He is the only man of Italy�察�Always excepted my dear Claudio。

Signior   Benedick�察  �For   shape�察  �for   bearing�察  �argument�察  �and   valour�察  �Goes 

foremost in report through Italy。 

     Hero。 Indeed he hath an excellent good name。 

     Urs。 His excellence did earn it ere he had it。 When are you married�察�

madam�拭�

     Hero。 Why�察  �every  day  to´morrow�   �Come�察  �go   in。   I'll show   thee   some 

attires�察�and have thy counsel Which is the best to furnish me to´morrow。 

       ��They walk away。�А�

     Urs。 She's lim'd�察�I warrant you� �We have caught her�察�madam。 

     Hero。 If it prove so�察�then loving goes by haps�察�Some Cupid kills with 

arrows�察�some with traps。 

       ��Exeunt Hero and Ursula。�А�

     ��Beatrice advances from the arbour。�А�

     Beat。 What fire is in mine ears�拭�Can this be true�拭�Stand I condemn'd 

for pride and scorn so much�拭�Contempt�察�farewell� �and maiden pride�察�adieu� �

No   glory   lives   behind   the   back   of   such。 And�察  �Benedick�察  �love   on�察  �I   will 

requite thee�察�Taming my wild heart to thy loving hand。 If thou dost love�察�

my   kindness   shall   incite   thee  To   bind   our   loves   up   in   a   holy   band�察  �For 

others   say   thou    dost   deserve�察  �and   I   Believe   it   better   than   reportingly。 

��Exit。�А�
