Persuade me rather to be a slave
to this detested groom.

1:02:04
- At your choice, sir.
- Daughter!

1:02:07
I prithee, do not make me mad.
1:02:12
I will not trouble thee.
1:02:15
Farewell, my child.
1:02:19
We'll no more meet,
no more see one another.

1:02:23
But yet thou art my flesh,
my blood, my daughter.

1:02:28
Or rather a disease that's in
my flesh,

1:02:35
which I must needs call mine,
thou art a boil,

1:02:40
a plague-sore in my corrupted blood.
1:02:44
But I'll not chide thee.
1:02:50
Let shame come
when it will.

1:02:52
Mend when thou canst.
I can be patient.

1:02:57
I can stay with Regan,
I and my hundred knights.

1:03:02
Not altogether so,
I looked not for you yet.

1:03:06
If you will come to me,
I entreat you to bring

1:03:09
but five-and-twenty knights.
1:03:12
- I gave you all!
- And in good time you gave it.

1:03:15
Made you my guardians,
my depositaries,

1:03:18
but kept a reservation to be
followed with such a number.

1:03:20
What need you five-and-twenty, ten
or five, in a house

1:03:23
where twice so many
have a command to tend you?

1:03:26
What need one?
1:03:29
O, reason not the need.
1:03:47
Our basest beggars are in
the poorest thing superfluous.

1:03:51
Allow not nature more than nature
needs,

1:03:57
man's life is cheap as beast's.
