Chapter 4 third act

first wilderness Storm, thunder and lightning.Enter Kent and a courtier, meet. Who else is here in Kent but bad weather? The courtier is a person whose mood is as restless as the weather. Kent I know you.Where is your Majesty? His courtiers are contending with the wrath of nature; he hath blown the earth into the sea with violent winds, and engulfed it with flooding waves, that all things are altered or destroyed; The tempest of blind rage carried them away; and within his little body a struggle more violent than the conflict of the tempest was going on.At nights like this, the mother bear, whose milk has been sucked dry by the cubs, also avoids coming out, and neither the lion nor the hungry wolf wants to wet their fur.But he ran in the wind and rain with his head bare, entrusting everything to an unknown force.

But who is Kent with him? The courtier had only the fool to follow him all the way, trying to relieve his inner pain with some jokes. Kent I know what you are, and I venture to tell you an important news from what I have observed.Between Albany and Cornwall, although superficially concealing each other without trace, there has been a conflict in the dark; , but in fact they were spies who reported the situation in our country to France. All the open and secret conflicts between these two dukes, their cruel treatment of the good old king, and all other more secret movements under the surface, all Word has reached the ears of France; and from France an army has now marched upon our divided country, and, taking advantage of our carelessness, has landed secretly in some of our best ports, and will soon unmask their stark banner up.Now, if you can trust me, go quickly to Dover, where you may find yourself greeted, and give him an affirmation of all the unreasonable humiliations of the mad king. report, he will appreciate your kindness.I am a gentleman of high rank and value, and I entrust this errand to you because I know you are a reliable person.

Courtier, I still want to talk to you. Kent No, you don't have to.To prove to you that I am not such a lowly man as I appear to be, you may open this purse and take its contents.You'll see Cordelia when you're at Dover; just show her this ring, and she'll tell you who your now-unknown companion is.What a dreadful storm!I want to go up to the king. Courtier give me your hand.Have you nothing else to say? There is one more sentence from Kent, which is more important than anything else; it is: Let's go to the king now; you go that way, I'll go this way, and whoever finds him first will say hello. (Exit each.)

another part of the second wilderness The storm continued.Lear is a fool. Lear blow, O wind!Burst your cheeks, blow hard!You, cataract-like rain, pour down, drown our minarets, drown the weather-cocks on our roofs!You, quick-thinking lightning of brimstone, forerunner of thunder that shatters oaks, scorched my white-haired head!You, thunderbolt that shakes all, strike down this fertile, plump earth!Break down the mold of creation, and let not one seed of ungrateful man be left in the world! Fool, old man, isn't it better to say a few words of kindness in a dry room than to be drenched in the rain in this open field?Go back to that house, old man, and ask your daughters to bless; for such a night will show no mercy to the wise or the fool.

Go ahead, Lear!Just spit your tongue of fire, just spout your rain!Rain, wind, thunder, and lightning are not my daughters, and I do not blame you for your ruthlessness; I have never given you land, I have never called you my children, and you have no obligation to obey me; therefore, as you please, rain down Come, your terrible powers, I stand here, but your slave, a poor, feeble, powerless, despised old man.But I still want to call you despicable accomplices, because you have abused the power of heaven to help two wicked daughters against me, a white-haired old man.what!what!This is despicable!

Folks, whoever has a good brain on his head will not worry about not having a roof to cover his head. The head hasn't found a house yet, There is a comfort zone before talking; The head and he are both louse, That's how it's called marrying a wife. Someone only loves his toes, don't take your heart to heart; Those corns made him so poor, Turning over in bed and yelling. There has never been a beauty who hasn't made her face in the mirror. Enter Kent. Lear Nay, I will bear what all men cannot bear; I will keep silent. Kent who's over there? One is Your Majesty and the other is Fool; one is smart and the other is stupid.

Kent alas!Your Majesty, are you here?That which loves the night does not love such a night; the furious sky frightens the wanderers in the dark, and keeps them from their holes.Never in my life have I seen such lightning, heard such dreadful thunder, such astonishing howling of wind and rain; the human spirit cannot bear such torments and horrors. The great spirit of Lear raises this dreadful tumult over our heads.Let them find their enemy now.Tremble, you undiscovered, unpunished sinner!Hide, you murderer, you liar with false oaths, you sanctimonious beast!Fly out of your wits, you use an upright appearance to cover up the treachery and evil of the murderous plot!Tear off your disguise of evil intentions, reveal your evil nature, and wail and beg for your life to these terrible heavenly officials!I am a man who has not committed a great crime, but has suffered a great deal of injustice.

Kent alas!There is nothing covering your head!Your Majesty, there is a thatched hut near here that will keep you out of the wind and rain.I was just now in that grim house--a house more grim than the stones in its walls--inquiring about you, but they shut the door and wouldn't let me in; now you take shelter from the rain , I want to go back, I have to ask them to talk about favors. Lear My head is beginning to go wild.Come, my boy.what's the matter with you, my child?are you cold?I am also cold.Where is this hut, my friend?When a person is destitute, humble things can become priceless.Come, take me to your hut.Poor fool, I still have a place in my heart to grieve for you.

joke I only blame myself for being confused and stupid, Hey, a gust of wind and a gust of rain, Don't hate God if you are unlucky when you are back, Be it rainy or windy. Lear is well, my dear boy.Come, lead us to this hut. (Exit Lear and Kent.) Fool It's too cool to-night, a bitch can't be hot.Before I leave, let me say a few words of prophecy: The preacher's lips are full of good words; There is a lot of water in the wine; The rich uncle teaches the tailor to work; Don't burn heretics; If every lawsuit is clear; The servant does not owe money, and the knight's debt is paid off;

Right and wrong in the world do not come from the mouth; Pickpockets run away when they see a crowd; Moneylenders will show gold and silver; The madams and whores build churches; By that time, the country of Great Britain, It will be too messy to tidy up; Those who were alive at that time could see: The one who walks lifts up his steps. In fact, this prophecy should be told by Merlin in the future, because I was born before him. (Down.) A Room in Gloucester Castle, Scene 3 Enter Gloucester and Edmund. Gloucester Alas, alas!Edmond, I do not approve of this inhumanity.When I asked them to allow me to give him a little help, they would deprive me of the use of my own house, never mention his name, say a word of entreaty for him, or give him any relief, If I disobey their orders, I will lose their favor forever.

Edmund was too savage and unkind! Gloucester Well, say no more.The two dukes had an opinion now, and there was something more serious than that.I have received a letter to-night, in which it is dangerous to speak; I have locked the letter in a closet.When the king is so abused, someone will come to avenge him; there is an army on the way; we must be on the king's side.I'll go to him, and secretly help him; go and talk with the duke, lest he perceive my actions.If he asks about me, you can tell him that I am not in good health and have fallen asleep.The big deal is death—they do threaten death—the king is my old master, and I can't sit idly by.The unexpected is about to happen, Edmond, and you must be careful. (Down.) EDMOND You disobeyed orders to pay this court, and I'll tell the duke at once; and the letter I'll tell him too.This is a good opportunity for me to pay my dues, my father will lose everything he has, and maybe all his property will fall into my hands; the old generation will fall, and the younger generation will rise. (Down.) The fourth wilderness.before the hut Enter Lear, Kent, and Fool. Kent is the place, my lord, go in.No one can bear such a storm in such a dark night without shelter. (The storm continued.) Lear don't haunt me. Your Majesty Kent, go in. Lear will you break my heart? Kent I would rather break my own heart.Your Majesty, go in. Lear You think it's a great torment to let such tempests hit our skin; so it seems to you; but when a man is seriously ill, he feels no little pain.When you see a bear, you have to turn around and run away; but if there is a rough sea behind you, you have to bite the bullet and walk towards the bear.Our bodies are sensitive when our minds are quiet; and the storm in my soul has taken away all other senses, save the throbbing of my heart's blood.Ingratitude of children!Isn't it like this hand puts food into this mouth, and this mouth bites off this hand?But I will punish them severely.No, I don't want to cry anymore.Shut me out on nights like this!Just fall down, I can bear any heavy rain.On such a night!O Regan, Goneril!Your old and kind father gave you all in all sincerity—ah!It's madness to think of it like that; I don't want to think of that; don't bring those words up again. Your Majesty Kent, go in. Lear, go in yourself, and find a place to hide.The storm would not allow me to think carefully about things which, the more I thought about them, increased my pain.But I want to go in. (to the Fool) Come in, boy, you go first.You homeless people - you go in there.I'm going to pray, and then I'm going to sleep for a while. (Enters people in.) Naked and unfortunate wretches, wherever you are, you have to bear the onslaught of such a pitiless tempest, with no roof over your head, with hunger in your belly, and your Clothes are riddled with holes, how can they withstand such a climate?what!I never thought of such things.People who enjoy the prosperity, open your eyes, come outside to appreciate the sufferings of the poor, share some blessings with them that you can't enjoy, and let God know that you are not heartless people! Edgar (within) Nine deep, nine deep!Poor Tom! (The fool runs out of the house.) Fool old man, don't go in; there's a ghost inside.Help!Help! Kent let me hold you, who's in there? Fool a ghost, a ghost; he says his name is poor Tom. Kent Who are you, yelling in this hut?come out. Enter Edgar disguised as a madman. Edgar go away!The devil is following me! "The wind blows through the hawthorn forest." Humph!Warm your body in your cold bed. Lear, have you given everything you have to your two daughters, is that why you are here today? Edgar Who gave poor Tom what?The devil led him through fires, through flames, through channels and eddies, through swamps and mud; put knives under his pillow, ropes under his stool, poison in his porridge made his heart proud, and rode a galloping sorrel horse over the broad bridge, and pursued his own shadow as a traitor.Bless your five talents!Tom is cold.what!Do choo choo choo.May the whirlwind not blow you, the stars not shoot poisonous arrows at you, and the plague not come to you!Do a good deed, and save poor Tom, who is doing so much harm to the devil!He was there now, there, and there again, there. (The storm continued.) Lear what!Did his daughter make him like this?Can't you leave something behind?Did you give them all together? Fool, he still has a rug, or we'd all be embarrassed. Lear, may the plague that permeates the sky and punishes the wicked befall your daughter! Lord Kent, he has no daughter. Lear damned traitor!He didn't have an unfilial daughter, how could he be in such a miserable state?Could it be that abandoned fathers don't care about their own bodies at all?Appropriate punishment!Who told their bodies to give birth to those owl-like daughters? Edgar "The little rooster sits on a high pier," ho ho, ho ho, ho, ho! Fool This cold night is going to make fools and madmen of us all. Edgar beware of the devil.Be filial to your parents; don't go back on what you said; don't swear; don't rape a married woman; don't make your lover too beautiful.Tom is cold. What did you do, Lear? Edgar, a haughty servant, with curly hair and lover's gloves on his hat, used to please women and do some shady deeds; swear and swear before heaven Destroy them one by one, thinking about adultery in your sleep, and implementing it as soon as you wake up.I drink, I love gambling, I am more lustful than a Turk; I have a treacherous heart, a pair of gullible ears, and a pair of hands that are not afraid of blood; I am lazy like a pig, cunning like a fox, greedy like a wolf, and like a dog Crazy, ferocious like a lion.Let not the sound of women's footsteps and rustling silk dresses take your soul away; put your foot not in a kiln; put your hand not in a skirt; let your pen touch To the books of the moneylenders; resist the temptations of the devil. "The cold wind is still blowing through the hawthorn tree"; listen to what it says, woo-woo-woo-woo-ha-ha-ha.Doffin My boy, my boy; chirp!Let him run over. (The storm continued.) Lear Alas, you'd better die, naked and exposed to the wind and rain.Is man nothing but such a thing?Think about him.You will not borrow a silk from a silkworm, nor a skin from a wild beast, nor a hair from a sheep, nor a piece of spice from a civet.Hey!The three of us have lost our true colors, only you have preserved the original nature of our talents; human beings in the grassy age are just a poor naked two-legged animal like you.Take it off, take it off, you extras!Come on, let go of your buttons. (Tears off clothes.) Be quiet, old fool, you cannot swim in such a dangerous night.A small fire in the wilderness is just like the heart of a lecherous old man. There is only such a star of heat, and his whole body is cold.look!A fire came. Enter Gloucester with the torch. Edgar This is the fiend called "Flibert Tebet"; he appears at dusk, and does not disappear until the first crow; he makes the eyes grow white film, and makes the good eye squint ; he makes cracks in the lips; he also makes the flour moldy, and pleases the poor. St. Vidour passed the hill three times, Meet the Nightmare and her nine sons; He said the goblin got off his horse,⑦ I swore to run away; Fuck you, goblin, f*ck you! Your Majesty Kent, what is the matter with you? Lear who is he? Who's there in Kent?Who are you looking for? Gloucester Who are you?What are your names? Edgar Poor Tom, he eats swimming frogs, toads, tadpoles, geckos, and water lizards; when the devil is in his mind, he goes mad, and takes cow dung for a delicious pot of lettuce; He swallowed rats and dead dogs, drank the green scum of stagnant waters, he was flogged everywhere, chained, and jailed; he once had three coats, six shirts, and rode a horse , with a sword; But during these seven years, Rats were Tom's only food. Beware of the ghost that is following me.Be quiet, Smokin!Don't make trouble, you devil! Gloucester what!Would His Majesty have company with such a man? The demon king in Edgar's hell was a gentleman; his name was Motuo, also known as Mahu. My lord Gloucester, our own flesh and blood are so corrupted that we make enemies of our own. Edgar Poor Tom is cold. Gloucester come back with me.My conscience does not allow me to obey your daughter's ruthless commands; though they told me to shut the door and leave you in this wild night, yet I boldly come out to find you and bring you to the fire , Where there is food. Lear asked me to talk to the philosopher first.What is the reason for the thunder in the sky? Your Majesty Kent, accept his offer; follow him back. Lear I will speak a word to this scholar.What subject do you study? Edgar's strategy against demons and the method of eliminating poisonous insects. Lear Let me ask you a private question. Please, my lord Kent, hurry him again; his nerves are a little deranged. Gloucester Can you blame him? (The storm continues.) His daughter wants him dead.well!That good Kent, he said long ago that such a day would come, poor exile!You say the king is going mad; I tell you, my friend, I am nearly mad myself.I have a son, with whom I have disowned now; it is only late that he has murdered my life; I love him, my friend, and no father loves his son more than I do; to tell you the truth, ( The storm continues) My mind is blown.What a night!Your Majesty, please-- Lear!I beg your pardon, sir.Noble philosophers, please. Edgar Tom is cold. Gloucester go in, fellow, and warm yourself in this hut. Come Lear, let us all go in. Your Majesty Kent, this way. Lear take him; I'll be with my philosopher. Lord Kent, let him have his way; let him take the fellow. Gloucester You bring him with you. Come, Kent boy; come with us. Come Lear, good Athenian. Gloucester Hush!Don't talk, don't talk. Knight Edgar Roland⑨ came to the dark castle, and he said over and over again: "Bah, hey, hey!" I smelled the blood of the British. (same below.) Scene 5 A room in Gloucester Castle Enter Cornwall and Edmund. Cornwall Before I leave his house, I must punish him. My lord Edmond, for the sake of fidelity, I disregard the affection of father and son, and I feel a little uneasy at the thought of how I will be criticized. Cornwall I now know that your brother's desire to take his life was not entirely out of malice; Edmond How reversed my fate is, though I have done a just thing, I must hold a grudge for life!This was the letter of which he spoke, which would confirm his charge of liaison with France.God!Why did he commit such a rebellious act, and why did he find it in my hands again? Cornwall came with me to the Duchess. If what Edmund's letter says is true, you're about to do something serious. Cornwall Whether it be true or false, it has made you the Earl of Gloucester.You go find where your father is so we can arrest him. Edmund (aside) If I see him aiding the old king, he'll be more suspicious. ——Although loyalty and filial piety are fierce battles in my soul, but righteousness lies, so I have no choice but to abandon personal favors. Cornwall I have all my confidence in you; and in my favor you shall have a more loving father. (Exit each.) Scene 6 A room in the farmhouse adjacent to the castle Enter Gloucester, Lear, Kent, Fool, and Edgar. Gloucester's here is better than the open air, don't think it's shabby, stay here.I will look for something to eat and use again; I will come as I go. Kent his intellect had been completely lost in his rage.God repays your kindness! (Exit Gloucester.) Edgar Flatredo was calling me, and he told me that King Nero was fishing in the lake of Hades.Hey, fool, you have to pray and watch out for the devil. Fool old man, tell me, is a madman a gentleman or a commoner? Lear is a king, a king! Fool, he is a commoner, but his son has earned a gentleman's title; he sees his son become a gentleman, and he becomes a commoner who is mad. Lear's thousand blood-red tongues of flame rolled around them—— Edgar's demon is biting my back. Fool Whoever believes in the tameness of wolves, or the health of horses, or the love of children, or the vows of whores, is a madman. Lear must deal with them, and I will interrogate them now. (To Edgar) Come, most learned judge, sit here; (to the Fool) You, wise magistrate, sit here. ——Come on, you two vixens! Edgar Look, there he stands, with his eyes wide open!Ma'am, would you like someone to watch you while you're on trial?Come across the river and meet me, Bessie— Fool her boat leaked, she can't let you know Why is she afraid to see you. Edgar's devil haunted poor Tom through the throat of the nightingale.Hopdance clamored for two fresh herrings in Tom's stomach.Be quiet, devil; I have nothing for you to eat. Your Majesty Kent, what is the matter with you!Don't just stand there like this.Would you like to lie down and rest on this mattress? Lear I'll see them judged first.Bring up their witnesses. (To EDGAR) Sit down, O judge in cassock; (To the Fool) You, his fellow law-enforcer, sit beside him. (to KENT) You are the jury, you sit down too. Edgar Let us judge with justice. Are you asleep or awake, Shepherd? Your sheep run in the fields; Only one blow from your little lips, Sheep don't hurt a hair. Purr purr; it was a gray cat. Lear accuses her first; she is Goneril.I swear by my dignity, she kicked her poor father. Get someone over here, grandma.Is your name Goneril? Lear She can't deny it. I'm sorry, but I thought you were a folding stool. There's another one here, Lear. You can tell what kind of heart she has by looking at her full face.Stop her!Raise your weapons, draw your swords, light your torches!A court of malpractice!Corrupt official who broke the law, why did you let her escape? Edgar God bless your sanity! Kent Ouch!Don't you often say, my lord, that you have not lost your patience?Now what about your patience? EDGAR (aside) My hot tears can't be held back for him, Lest they should see my pretense. Lear these puppies: Trey, Burt, Sveta, look, they're all barking at me. Edgar frightened them away by turning Tom around.Go away, you vicious dogs! black mouth, white mouth, A mad dog bites a man and grinds his fangs, Bulldog Hound Mongrel, Pit dogs go round and round, Green ass.curly tail, Tom won't spare any; As long as I turn my face away, Big dogs and small dogs run away fast. Do-cry-doo-cry.Shout!Come, let's catch the temple fair and go to the market.Poor Tom, your horns are too dry to squeeze a drop of water from. Lear told them to cut Reagan's body open to see what was in her heart.What is the natural reason for their hearts to become so hard? (To EDGAR) I took you, and made you one of my hundred guards, but I didn't like the style of your dress; you might say to me, It's the most beautiful Persian dress; but I think you should change it. Your Majesty Kent, you'd better lie down and rest. Lear Don't quarrel, don't quarrel; put down the curtains, well, well, well.Let's go to supper in the morning; well, well, well. Fool, I'm going to sleep at noon. Gloucester re-enters. Gloucester come, my friend; where is the king? Kent is here, my lord; but leave him alone, for his mind is deranged. My friend Gloucester, take him up.I've heard of a plot to take his life.The carriage is harnessed out, put him in quickly, and drive him to Dover, where you will be welcomed and safe.Take up your master; if thou best half an hour's time, His life, your life, and all that labor to save him, shall perish.Pick up, pick up; come with me, and let me try to get you quickly to a place where you can rest. Kent's tormented body and mind were now peacefully asleep; rest might calm his shattered nerves, if Heaven would help them not to be so broken out of hand. (to the Fool) Come, help me lift your master; you cannot stay here either. Gloucester come, come, go. (Exeunt Kent, Gloucester, and Fool Lear, besides Edgar.) That's what Edgar's king must have done, Made me forget my sorrows. The greatest misfortune is to hold on to your sorrows alone, No pleasure is in my heart; If you have a sympathetic companion, Half of the great pain will be relieved. Some kings are unfilial and rebellious daughters, I myself met with a cruel and strict father, He and I are in the same situation! Go, Tom, hold your grudges, You now bear the stigma of innocence, There will always be a day to restore your innocence. No matter what happens tonight, I hope the king can escape safely!I'd better hide. (Down.) Scene 7 A room in Gloucester Castle Enter Cornwall, Regan, Goneril, Edmund, and servants. Lady Cornwall, hurry to your gentleman's place, and give him this letter; the French troops have landed. —Come, and search for the trace of the traitor Gloucester for me. (Exit some servants.) Reagan caught him and hanged him immediately. Goneril gouged out his eyeballs. Cornwall I have my own way of dealing with him.Edmond, we ought not to let you see how your treacherous father is punished, so escort our sister now, and pay my respects to the Duke of Albany, and tell him to make haste; Take the same action.Between our two places, we must use flying rides to convey news at any time.Farewell, dear sister; farewell, Lord Gloucester. Enter Oswald. What's the matter with Cornwall?What about the king? The Earl of Oswald Gloucester has sent him out; Thirty-five or half a dozen knights who pursued him met him at the gates, and some of the earl's men Go forward, it is said that their armed friends are waiting for them there. Cornwall prepares your wife's horses. Goneril Farewell, my lord, farewell, sister. Cornwall goodbye, Edmund. (Exit Goneril, Edmund, and Oswald) Some more take that traitor, Gloucester, and bring him like a thief to me. (Exit some servants.) Though we could not condemn him to death without a proper trial, yet to vent our wrath, we have to do it in our power, regardless of the accusations of the people.Who is that over there?Is that the traitor? Servants re-enter Gloucester. Reagan the fox without a conscience!It was him. Cornwall bound his withered arms firmly. My lords Gloucester, what is the meaning of this?My dear friends, you are my guests; do not treat me with such insolence. Cornwall tied him up. (Servants bind Gloucester.) Reagan Tighten up, Tighten up.Ah, hateful rebel! Gloucester You are a heartless woman, I am not a traitor. Cornwall tied him to this chair.Traitor, I want you to know—(Reagan pulls Gloucester beard.) By God Gloucester, what's the matter, you're pulling my beard! Reagan has such a white beard, but unexpectedly he is a traitor! Wicked woman of Gloucester, tear these beards from my cheeks, they shall accuse you of crimes as alive.I am the lord here, and you should not repay my hospitality in this way with your robber's hand.What on earth are you going to do? Cornwall said, What letter have you got lately from France? Reagan let's be honest, we already know everything. Cornwall What have you got to do with those traitors who have lately come over our borders? Reagan, who did you send that crazy old king to?Say. Gloucester I have received only one letter, and it was only speculation, from a man without prejudice, and not an enemy. Cornwall, what a cunning dodge! Reagan is talking nonsense! Cornwall Where did you send the king? Gloucester to Dover. Why was Reagan sent to Dover?Didn't we warn you earlier— Why was Cornwall sent to Dover?Let him answer this question. Gloucester, I'm in a tiger's den now, and I've got to fight my old life. Why was Reagan sent to Dover? Gloucester Because I would not see thy ferocious claws Gouging out his poor old eye; For I would not see thy cruel sister With boar-like teeth in his holy flesh.His naked head storms in hell's dark night; and the sea, shaken by such tempests, would send its fury to heaven, And quench the fires of the stars; but he, poor old man, still To help the sky shed his tears.And if, on such a dreadful night, the wolf howls at your door, say, "Good Gatekeeper, open the door and let him in," despite all his crimes.But one day I will see the retribution of heaven befalling such children. Cornwall You will never see such a day again.Come on hold this chair.I want to trample your eyes under my feet. Gloucester Whoever wishes to live to old age himself, help me!Ah, how miserable!God! (Gloucester is gouged out at a glance.) Reagan and the eyeball should also be removed, lest it laugh at the eyeless side. Cornwall If you see what retribution-- FIRST SERVANT Stop, my lord; I have served you since my youth, but this is the best service that I now tell you to stop. What about Reagan, you bastard! First Servant If you grew a beard on your cheeks, I'll tear it off right now. Cornwall bastard slave, are you rebellious? (draws sword.) First servant, come on then, let's fight to the death. (Sword drawn. Two duel. Cornwall wounded.) Regan give me your sword.A slave can act so wildly! (Take the sword and stab the servant armor from the back.) First servant!I'm dead.You, my lord, still have one eye to see him receive a little retribution.what! (die.) Cornwall, see what retribution he can see!Come out, damned pulp!Will you still shine now? (Gloucester's other eye is gouged out.) All is darkness and misery in Gloucester.Where is my son Edmund?Edmond, kindle your natural rage, and avenge me for this dark outrage! Reagan hum, you wicked traitor!You call a hater of you; he was the first to inform you of your conspiracy against us, and he is a man of righteousness who will show you no mercy. Gloucester, I am a fool!Then Edgar was wronged.Merciful gods, forgive my mistakes and bless him with happiness! Reagan pushed him out the door and let him grope his way to Dover. (Exit a servant leading Gloucester) What, my lord?How did your complexion change? Cornwall I am wounded.Come with me, madam.Cast out the blind traitor; throw this slave on the dunghill.Reagan, my blood is shed; this is a disaster.Put your arm around me. (Exit Reagan and Cornwall.) Second Servant If this guy will end well, I can do any bad thing. Third servant If she dies, all women will become evil spirits. 仆乙让我们跟在那老伯爵的后面,叫那疯丐把他领到他所要去的地方;反正那个游荡的疯子什么地方都去。 仆丙你先去吧;我还要去拿些麻布和蛋白来,替他贴在他的流血的脸上。但愿上天保佑他! (Exit each.)
