Vivien. Wilt thou give me that receipt, Dagonet?

Dagonet. I filled my mouth wi’ honey, and my couch wi’ prickles,

And went asleep on’t.

(Vivien laughs and retires behind the curtain.)

Dagonet. Yea woe is me, is me, poor Dagonet!

I hate myself and yet I fain must smile

And play the thistle-down and dandy-puff,

The foolish froth at edge of flagonets;

And all the while see me a tortured torrent
