                      SCENE I。 ��King Lear's Palace。�А�



     Enter Kent�察�Gloucester�察�and Edmund。 ��Kent and Glouceste   converse。 

Edmund stands back。�А�

       Kent。 I thought the King had more affected the Duke of Albany than 

Cornwall。 Glou。 It did always seem so to us�察�but now�察�in the division of the 

kingdom�察�it appears not which of the Dukes he values most�察�for equalities 

are so weigh'd that curiosity in neither can make choice of either's moiety。 

Kent。 Is not this your son�察�my lord�拭�Glou。 His breeding�察�sir�察�hath been at 

my   charge。   I   have   so   often   blush'd   to   acknowledge   him   that   now   I   am 

braz'd   to't。   Kent。   I   cannot   conceive   you。   Glou。   Sir�察  �this   young   fellow's 

mother could�察�whereupon she grew round´womb'd�察�and had indeed�察�sir�察�a 

son for her cradle ere she had a husband for her bed。 Do you smell a fault�拭�

Kent。 I cannot wish the fault undone�察�the issue of it being so proper。 Glou。 

But I have�察�sir�察�a son by order of law�察�some year elder than this�察�who yet is 

no dearer in my account。 Though this knave came something saucily into 

the world before he was sent for�察�yet was his mother fair�察�there was good 

sport   at   his   making�察  �and   the   whoreson   must   be   acknowledged。´   Do   you 

know this noble gentleman�察�Edmund�拭�Edm。 ��comes forward�А�No�察�my lord。 

Glou。 My Lord of Kent。 Remember him hereafter as my honourable friend。 

Edm。   My   services   to   your   lordship。   Kent。   I   must   love   you�察  �and   sue   to 

know you better。 Edm。 Sir�察�I shall study deserving。 Glou。 He hath been out 

nine years�察�and away he shall again。 Sound a sennet。 The King is coming。 

       Enter one bearing a coronet�察�then Lear�察�then the Dukes of Albany and 

Cornwall�察�next�察�Goneril�察�Regan�察�Cordelia�察�with Followers。 

       Lear。 Attend   the lords  of   France   and   Burgundy�察  �Gloucester。  Glou。   I 

shall�察  �my   liege。   Exeunt   ��Gloucester   and   Edmund�А�   Lear。   Meantime   we 

shall express our darker purpose。 Give me the map there。 Know we have 

divided In three our kingdom�察�and 'tis our fast intent To shake all cares and 

business   from   our   age�察  �Conferring   them   on   younger   strengths   while   we 

Unburthen'd crawl toward death。  Our son of Cornwall�察�And you�察 �our   no 

less loving son of Albany�察�We have this hour a constant will to publish Our 

daughters' several   dowers�察  �that   future   strife   May  be   prevented   now。 The 

princes�察�France and Burgundy�察�Great rivals in our youngest daughter's love�察�

Long in our court have made their amorous sojourn�察�And here are to be 

answer'd。 Tell me�察�my daughters ��Since now we will divest us both of rule�察�

Interest of territory�察�cares of state���察�Which of you shall we say doth love us 

most�拭  �That   we   our   largest   bounty   may   extend   Where   nature   doth   with 

merit challenge。 Goneril�察�Our eldest´born�察�speak first。 Gon。 Sir�察�I love you 

more   than   words   can   wield the   matter�察  �Dearer   than   eyesight�察  �space�察  �and 

liberty�察�Beyond what can be valued�察�rich or rare�察�No less than life�察�with 

grace�察�health�察�beauty�察�honour�察�As much as child e'er lov'd�察�or father found�察�

A love that makes breath poor�察�and speech unable。 Beyond all manner of 

so much I love you。 Cor。 ��aside�А�What shall Cordelia speak�拭�Love�察�and be 

silent。 Lear。 Of all these bounds�察�even from this line to this�察�With shadowy 

forests and with champains rich'd�察�With plenteous rivers and wide´skirted 

meads�察�We make thee lady。 To thine and Albany's issue Be this perpetual。´ 

What   says   our   second   daughter�察  �Our   dearest   Regan�察  �wife   to   Cornwall�拭�

Speak。 Reg。 Sir�察�I am made Of the selfsame metal that my sister is�察�And 

prize me at her worth。 In my true heart I find she names my very deed of 

love�察�Only she comes too short�察�that I profess Myself an enemy to all other 

joys Which   the   most   precious   square   of sense   possesses�察�And   find   I   am 

alone     felicitate  In   your   dear   Highness'     love。   Cor。   ��aside�А  �Then    poor 

Cordelia� �And yet not so�察�since I am sure my love's More richer than my 

tongue。 Lear。 To thee and thine hereditary ever Remain this ample third of 

our    fair  kingdom�察    �No    less  in  space�察  �validity�察  �and   pleasure    Than    that 

conferr'd on Goneril。´ Now�察�our joy�察�Although the last�察�not least�察�to whose 

young love The vines of France and milk of Burgundy Strive to be interest�察�

what can you say to draw A third more opulent than your sisters�拭�Speak。 

Cor。   Nothing�察  �my   lord。   Lear。   Nothing�拭  �Cor。   Nothing。   Lear。   Nothing   can 

come of nothing。 Speak again。 Cor。 Unhappy that I am�察�I cannot heave My 

heart into my mouth。 I love your Majesty According to my bond�察�no more 

nor less。 Lear。 How�察�how�察�Cordelia�拭�Mend your speech a little�察�Lest it may 

mar your fortunes。 Cor。 Good my lord�察�You have begot me�察�bred me�察�lov'd 

me�察�I Return those duties back as are right fit�察�Obey you�察�love you�察�and 

most honour you。 Why have my  sisters husbands�察�if   they say They  love 

you   all�拭  �Haply�察  �when   I   shall   wed�察  �That   lord   whose   hand   must   take   my 

plight shall   carry  Half   my  love   with him�察 �half   my  care   and duty。  Sure   I

heart with this�拭�Cor。 Ay�察�good my lord。 Lear。 So young�察�and so untender�拭�
