They say, she hath abjured the company 40

And sight of men.

Vio. O that I served that lady,
And might not be delivered to the world,
Till I had made own occasion mellow,
What my estate is!

Cap.That were hard to compass,

Because she will admit no kind of suit, 45
No, not the duke's.

Vio. There is a fair behaviour in thee, captain;
And though that nature with a beauteous
wall
Doth oft close in polution, yet of thee

I will believe thou hast a mind that suits 50
With this thy fair and outward character.
I prithee, and I'll pay thee bounteously,
Conceal me what I am, and be my aid
For such disguise as haply shall become
The form of my intent. I'll serve this duke. 55
Thou shalt present me as an eunuch to him.
It may be worth thy pains, for I can sing
And speak to him in many sorts of music
That will allow me very worth his service.
What else may hap to time I will commit, 60
Only shape thou thy silence to my wit.

Cap. Be you his eunuch, and your mute I'll be.
When my tongue blabs, then let mine eyes
not see.

Vio. I thank thee. Lead me on. [Exeunt.
