But I would be loath to fall into my [dreams] again: I will

therefore tarry in despite of the flesh and the blood.

[Enter a] [Messenger.]

Mess. Your honour's players, hearing your amendment,

Are come to play a pleasant comedy;

For so your doctors hold it very meet,

Seeing [too much] sadness hath congeal'd your blood,

And melancholy is the nurse of frenzy:

Therefore they thought it good you hear a play

And frame your mind to mirth and merriment.
