Yet fortune cannot recompense me better
Than to die well and not my master's debtor. 76
Scene Four
[The Forest of Arden]
Enter Rosalind for Ganymede, Celia for Aliena, and Clown, alias Touchstone.
Ros. O Jupiter! how weary are my spirits.
Touch. I care not for my spirits if my legs
were not weary.
Ros. I could find it in my heart to disgrace my
man's apparel and to cry like a woman; but I
must comfort the weaker vessel, as doublet and
hose ought to show itself courageous to petti-
coat: therefore, courage, good Aliena. 8
Cel. I pray you, bear with me: I cannot go
no further.
Touch. For my part, I had rather bear with
you than bear you; yet I should bear no cross if
I did bear you, for I think you have no money
in your purse. 14
Ros. Well, this is the forest of Arden.
Touch. Ay, now am I in Arden; the more
fool I: when I was at home, I was in a better
place: but travellers must be content.
Enter Corin and Silvius.
Ros. Ay, be so, good Touchstone. Look you,
who comes here; a young man and an old in
solemn talk. 21
