And then they die; but others follow them—

And thou shalt have thy garland day by day

While I am here to weave it for thee?

Flor. (aside).Well,

This is the oddest wooing! On my word,

A thousand pities that the lady’s love

Should be lopsided! Come, arouse thee, dial—

Be eloquent with thanks! I’ve half a mind

To thank her for thee, in the interests

Of all true horologes!
