his head;
As like almost to Claudio as himself.
[Unmuffles CLAUDIO.]
DUKE.
If he be like your brother [to ISABELLA], for his sake
Is he pardon'd; and for your lovely sake,
Give me your hand and say you will be mine;
He is my brother too: but fitter time for that.
By this Lord Angelo perceives he's safe;
Methinks I see a quick'ning in his eye. -
Well, Angelo, your evil quits you well":
Look that you love your wife; her worth worth yours. -
I find an apt remission in myself;
And yet here's one in place I cannot pardon. -
You, sirrah [to Lucio], that knew me for a fool, a coward,
One all of luxury, an ass, a madman;
Wherein have I so deserved of you
That you extol me thus?
LUCIO.
Faith, my lord, I spoke it but according to the trick. If you
will hang me for
it, you may; but I had rather it would please you I might be
whipped.
DUKE.
Whipp'd first, sir, and hang'd after. -
Proclaim it, Provost, round about the city,
If any woman wrong'd by this lewd fellow, -
As I have heard him swear himself there's one
Whom he begot with child, - let her appear,
And he shall marry her: the nuptial finish'd,
Let him be whipp'd and hang'd.
LUCIO.
I beseech your highness, do not marry me to a whore! Your
highness said even now I made you a duke; good my lord, do not
recompense me in making me a cuckold.
DUKE.
Upon mine honour, thou shalt marry her.
Thy slanders I forgive; and therewithal
Remit thy other forfeits. - Take him to prison;
And see our pleasure herein executed.
LUCIO.
Marrying a punk, my lord, is pressing to death, whipping, and
hanging.
DUKE.
Slandering a prince deserves it. -
[Exeunt Officers with LUCIO.]
She, Claudio, that you wrong'd, look you restore. -
Joy to you, Mariana! - Love her, Angelo;
I have confess'd her, and I know her virtue. -
Thanks, good friend Escalus, for thy much goodness
There's more behind that is more gratulate.
Thanks, Provost, for thy care and secrecy;
We shall employ thee in a worthier place. -
Forgive him, Angelo, that brought you home
The head of Ragozine for Claudio's:
The offence pardons itself. - Dear Isabel,
I have a motion much imports your good;
Whereto if you'll a willing ear incline,
What's mine is yours, and what is yours is mine: -
So, bring us to our palace; where we'll show
What's yet behind that's meet you all should know.
