APEMANTUS<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

226. \u00a0This is in thee a nature but infected;<\/span>
\n227. \u00a0A poor unmanly melancholy sprung<\/span>
\n228. \u00a0From change of fortune. Why this rage (spade)? This place?<\/span>
\n229. \u00a0This slave-like habit? and these looks of care?<\/span>
\n230. \u00a0Thy flatterers yet wear silk, drink wine, lie soft;<\/span>
\n231. \u00a0Hug their diseased perfumes and have forgot<\/span>
\n232. \u00a0That ever Timon was. Shame not these woods,<\/span>
\n233. \u00a0By putting on the color (cunning) of a carper.<\/span>
\n234. \u00a0Be thou a flatterer now, and see to thrive<\/span>
\n235. \u00a0By that which has undone thee: hinge thy knee,<\/span>
\n236. \u00a0And let his very breath, whom thou’lt observe,<\/span>
\n237. \u00a0Blow off they cap; praise his most vicious strain,<\/span>
\n238. \u00a0And call it excellent; thou wast told thus;<\/span>
\n239. \u00a0Thou gavest thine ears like tapsters that bid welcome<\/span>
\n240. \u00a0To knaves and all approachers; \u2019tis most just<\/span>
\n241. \u00a0That thou turn rascal; hadst thou wealth again,<\/span>
\n242. \u00a0Rascals should have\u2019t. Do not assume my likeness.<\/span><\/p>\n

TIMON<\/span><\/strong>
\n243. \u00a0Were I like thee, I’ld throw away myself. <\/span><\/p>\n

APEMANTUS<\/span><\/strong>
\n244. \u00a0Thou hast cast away thyself, being like thyself;<\/span>
\n245. \u00a0A madman so long, now a fool. What, thinks<\/span>
\n246. \u00a0That the bleak air, thy boisterous chamberlain,<\/span>
\n247. \u00a0Will put they shirt on warm? will the cold brook,<\/span>
\n248. \u00a0Candied with ice, candle they morning taste,<\/span>
\n249. \u00a0To cure they o\u2019er-night\u2019s surfeit? Call the creatures<\/span>
\n250. \u00a0Whose naked natures live in all the spite<\/span>
\n251. \u00a0Of wreakful heaven, whose bare unhoused trunks,<\/span>
\n252. \u00a0To the conflicting elements exposed,<\/span>
\n253. \u00a0Answer mere nature; bid them flatter thee.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
