There are not words in any tongue so soft

As I would use: the gods must have a new one,

If they would have me speak.

Crat. How, king of Sparta! When your fortune smiles,

A glorious sunshine, and a gloomy soul?

The gods love chearfulness, when they are kind;

They think their gifts despised, and thrown away

On sullen thankless hearts.

Cleor. I hear, my dearest lord, that we shall go.

Cleom. Go!
