SEBASTIAN I'll be your purse-bearer and leave you
For an hour.
ANTONIO To the Elephant.
SEBASTIAN I do remember.
[Exeunt]
TWELFTH NIGHT
ACT III
SCENE IV OLIVIA's garden.
[Enter OLIVIA and MARIA]
OLIVIA I have sent after him: he says he'll come;
How shall I feast him? what bestow of him?
For youth is bought more oft than begg'd or borrow'd.
I speak too loud.
Where is Malvolio? he is sad and civil,
And suits well for a servant with my fortunes:
Where is Malvolio?
MARIA He's coming, madam; but in very strange manner. He
is, sure, possessed, madam.
OLIVIA Why, what's the matter? does he rave?
MARIA No. madam, he does nothing but smile: your
ladyship were best to have some guard about you, if
he come; for, sure, the man is tainted in's wits.
OLIVIA Go call him hither.
[Exit MARIA]
I am as mad as he,
If sad and merry madness equal be.
[Re-enter MARIA, with MALVOLIO]
How now, Malvolio!
MALVOLIO Sweet lady, ho, ho.
OLIVIA Smilest thou?
I sent for thee upon a sad occasion.
MALVOLIO Sad, lady! I could be sad: this does make some
obstruction in the blood, this cross-gartering; but
what of that? if it please the eye of one, it is
with me as the very true sonnet is, 'Please one, and
please all.
