Scene: Sicilia, and Bohemia.

Act I

Scene I

Antechamber in Leontes’ palace.

Enter Camillo and Archidamus.

Archidamus

If you shall chance, Camillo, to visit Bohemia, on the like occasion whereon my services are now on foot, you shall see, as I have said, great difference betwixt our Bohemia and your Sicilia.
Camillo

I think, this coming summer, the King of Sicilia means to pay Bohemia the visitation which he justly owes him.
Archidamus

Wherein our entertainment shall shame us we will be justified in our loves; for indeed—
Camillo

Beseech you—
Archidamus

Verily, I speak it in the freedom of my knowledge: we cannot with such magnificence—in so rare—I know not what to say. We will give you sleepy drinks, that your senses, unintelligent of our insufficience, may, though they cannot praise us, as little accuse us.
Camillo

You pay a great deal too dear for what’s given freely.
Archidamus

Believe me, I speak as my understanding instructs me and as mine honesty puts it to utterance.
Camillo

Sicilia cannot show himself over-kind to Bohemia. They were trained together in their childhoods; and there rooted betwixt them then such an affection, which cannot choose but branch now. Since their more mature dignities and royal necessities made separation of their society, their encounters, though not personal, have been royally attorneyed with interchange of gifts, letters, loving embassies; that they have seemed to be together, though absent, shook hands, as over a vast, and embraced, as it were, from the ends of opposed winds. The heavens continue their loves!
Archidamus

I think there is not in the world either malice or matter to alter it. You have an unspeakable comfort of your young prince Mamillius: it is a gentleman of the greatest promise that ever came into my note.
Camillo

I very well agree with you in the hopes of him: it is a gallant child; one that indeed physics the subject, makes old hearts fresh: they that went on crutches ere he was born desire yet their life to see him a man.
Archidamus

Would they else be content to die?
Camillo

Yes; if there were no other excuse why they should desire to live.
Archidamus

If the king had no son, they would desire to live on crutches till he had one. Exeunt.

Mehr von William Shakespeare

  • A Midsummer Night’s Dream
    You get a play that keeps changing its mind about love, from the quarrelling lovers in the forest to Bottom blundering through his amateur performance. The language is playful and slippery, and Puck gives the whole thing a mischievous sense that human beings are never quite in control.
  • All’s Well That Ends Well
    Helena chases a man who plainly doesn't deserve her, and the play knows it, which is what makes it interesting. If you like your comedies uneasy, with a bed trick and an ending that only half convinces, this one will stick with you.
  • Antony and Cleopatra
    These two aren't young lovers, they're middle-aged, vain, magnificent messes who keep wrecking empires over each other, and you half want to shake them. Stay for Enobarbus, the dry-eyed friend whose barge speech about Cleopatra is worth the whole play.
