The Two Gentlemen of Verona
ACT V SCENE I | Milan. An abbey. | |
[Enter EGLAMOUR] | ||
EGLAMOUR | The sun begins to gild the western sky; | |
And now it is about the very hour | ||
That Silvia, at Friar Patrick’s cell, should meet me. | ||
She will not fail, for lovers break not hours, | ||
Unless it be to come before their time; | 5 | |
So much they spur their expedition. | ||
See where she comes. | ||
[Enter SILVIA] | ||
Lady, a happy evening! | ||
SILVIA | Amen, amen! Go on, good Eglamour, | |
Out at the postern by the abbey-wall: | 10 | |
I fear I am attended by some spies. | ||
EGLAMOUR | Fear not: the forest is not three leagues off; | |
If we recover that, we are sure enough. | ||
[Exeunt] |
