(Aside.) And then be desolate like me! My woes

Will at the thought grow light.

Pro. What now remains

To be prepared? There should be solemn pomp

To grace a day like this. Ay, breaking hearts

Require a drapery to conceal their throbs

From cold inquiring eyes; and it must be

Ample and rich, that so their gaze may not

Explore what lies beneath.
