:29:06
I cannot be so
partial, Goneril,

:29:09
to the great love
I bear you.

:29:11
I pray you content.
:29:43
Shalt see thy
other daughter
will use thee kindly;

:29:46
for although she's
as like this as a crab's
like an apple,

:29:49
yet I can tell
what I can tell.

:29:51
What canst tell, boy?
:29:53
That she will taste
as like this as a crab
does to a crab.

:30:02
Canst tell why one's nose
stands i' th' middle
of one's face?

:30:05
No.
:30:06
Why, to keep one's eyes
on either side of one's nose.

:30:09
That what a man
cannot smell out,
he may spy into.

:30:17
I did her wrong.
:30:26
Canst tell
how an oyster
makes his shell?

:30:29
No.
Nor I, neither.

:30:32
But I can tell why
a snail has a house.

:30:34
Why?
:30:35
Why, to put his head in;
not to give it away
to his daughters.

:30:39
I will forget
my nature.

:30:42
So kind a father.
:30:49
The reason why
the seven stars are
no more than seven

:30:52
is a pretty reason.
:30:54
Because they are
not eight?

:30:56
Yes, indeed.
:30:57
Thou wouldst make
a good fool.
