:59:01
which I must
needs call mine;

:59:03
thou art a boil,
a plague-sore,

:59:05
or embossed carbuncle
in my corrupted blood.

:59:09
But I'll not chide thee.
:59:11
Let shame come
when it will;

:59:15
I do not call it.
:59:17
I do not bid
the thunder-bearer shoot,

:59:21
nor tell tales of thee
to high-judging Jove.

:59:24
Mend when
thou canst;

:59:28
be better
at thy leisure;

:59:31
I can be patient;
:59:33
I can stay with Regan,
I and my hundred knights.

:59:46
Why might not you, my lord,
receive attendance from those
that she calls servants,

:59:49
or from mine?
:59:51
Why not, my lord?
:59:53
If then they chanc'd
to slack you,
we could control them.

:59:58
If you will come to me,
1:00:02
for now I spy a danger.
1:00:04
I entreat you to bring
but five and twenty.

1:00:07
To no more will I give
place or notice.

1:00:10
I gave you all.
1:00:12
And in good time
you gave it.

1:00:14
Made you my guardians,
1:00:17
my depositories,
1:00:19
but kept a reservation
1:00:22
to be followed
with such a number.

1:00:27
What, must I come
to you with five
and twenty?

1:00:30
Regan, said you so?
1:00:33
And speak't again, my lord.
No more with me.

1:00:40
Those wicked creatures
yet do look well-favour'd

1:00:46
when others
are more wicked.

1:00:51
Not being the worst
stands in some
rank of praise.
