King Lear
| << King Lear - Act 3 Scene 4 | King Lear - Act 3 Scene 6 >> |
A Room in GLOUCESTER'S Castle. |
Enter CORNWALL and EDMUND. |
| Corn. I will have my revenge ere I depart his house. |
| Edm. How, my lord, I may be censured, that nature thus gives way to loyalty, something fears me to think of. |
| Corn. I now perceive it was not altogether your brother's evil disposition made him seek his death; but a provoking merit, set a-work by a reproveable badness in himself. |
| Edm. How malicious is my fortune, that I must repent to be just! This is the letter he spoke of, which approves him an intelligent party to the advantages of France. O heavens! that this treason were not, or not I the detector! |
| Corn. Go with me to the duchess. |
| Edm. If the matter of this paper be certain, you have mighty business in hand. |
| Corn. True, or false, it hath made thee Earl of Gloucester. Seek out where thy father is, that he may be ready for our apprehension. |
| Edm. [Aside.] If I find him comforting the king, it will stuff his suspicion more fully. I will persever in my course of loyalty, though the conflict be sore between that and my blood. |
| Corn. I will lay trust upon thee; and thou shalt find a dearer father in my love. [Exeunt. |
