Yes, ye stay here, plac'd under the protection
Of gallant men.

COUNTESS.
O take us with you, brother.
Leave us not in this gloomy solitude
To brood o'er anxious thoughts. The mists of doubt
Magnify evils to a shape of horror.

Who speaks of evil? I entreat you, sister,
Use words of better omen.

COUNTESS.
Then take us with you.
O leave us not behind you in a place
That forces us to such sad omens. Heavy
And sick within me is my heart———
These walls breathe on me, like a church-yard vault.
I cannot tell you, brother, how this place
Doth go against my nature. Take us with you.
Come, sister, join you your entreaty!—Niece,
Your's too. We all entreat you, take us with you!

The place's evil omens will I change,
Making it that which shields and shelters for me
My best-belov'd.
