Hail to | you, pro|vost, so | I think | you are.
PROVOST

, ,

I am the | provost:| What's your | will, good*| friar?
DUKE VINCENTIO
, ,
2 , , ,
Bound by | my char|ity, and | my blessed | order,
, , , ,
x
I come | to vis|it the | afflict|ed spirits
, 2
, , , ,
Here in the | prison:| do me | the com|mon
right
,
, , , ,
To let | me see | them: and | to make | me
know
, , ,
, , , ->
The na|ture of | their crimes,| that I | may min||ister
,
, ,
To them | accord|ingly. \\
PROVOST

I would do | more than | that, if | more were
| needful.

,
Look here*| comes one: a gentle|woman | of mine,
,
, , ,
,
Who fal|ling in | the flaws | of her / own youth,
, ,
, ,
,
Hath blist|ered her | report:| she is | with
child,
,
, ,
, ,
And he | that got | it, sent|enced: a / young
man,
, ,
, , ,
More fit | to do | anoth|er such | offense,
,
,
Than die | for this.
DUKE VINCENTIO
,
,
When must | he die? (di with prev)
PROVOST
, ,
,
As I | do think | tomor|row. \\
, ,
, , ,
I have | provid|ed for | you, stay | awhile
, , ,
And you | shall be | conduc|ted. \\
DUKE VINCENTIO

2 , ,
Repent | you (fair | one) of the | sin you | carry?
JULIET

I do;| and bear | the shame | most pa|tiently.
DUKE VINCENTIO
,
, , 2
, ,
I'll teach | you how | you shall ar|raign your |
conscience
, ,
, , ,
And try | your pen|itence,| if it | be sound,
, ,
,
Or hol|lowly | put^on.
JULIET
, ,
I'll glad|ly learn.
DUKE VINCENTIO

Love you | the man | that wronged | you? \\
JULIET

, , ,
Yes, as | I love | the wom|an that / wronged him.
DUKE VINCENTIO
,
, , , ,
So then | it seems | your most | offense|ful act
, 2 , ,
Was mu|tually | commit|ted.
JULIET
, 2 ,
Mut|ually.
DUKE VINCENTIO
, , ,
2 , ,
Then was / your sin | of heav|ier kind | than
his.
JULIET
, x
, , ,
I do | confess it,| and re|pent it |(father).
DUKE VINCENTIO
,
, 2 , ,
,
'Tis meet | so (daught|er) but lest | you do |
repent
, ,
, , ,
As that | the sin | hath brought | you to | this
shame,
, 2
, , ,
x
Which sor|row is al|ways towards | ourselves,| not
heaven,
, ,
T T Tx
2 x
Showing | we would | not spare heaven,| as we
love it,
,
, ,
But as | we stand | in fear. \\
JULIET
, ,
, , x
I do | repent | me, as | it is | an evil,
, ,
,
And take | the shame | with joy.
DUKE VINCENTIO

Your part/ner (as I | hear) must | die to|morrow,

, , ,
Grace | go with | you, Be|nedi|cite.
[Exit]
JULIET
, ,
, , 2 ,
Must^die | tomor|row? Oh | injur|ious love
2 ,
, ,
, ,
That respites | me a | life, whose | very | comfort
, ,
, 2
Is still | a dy|ing hor|ror.
PROVOST
, 2 ,
'Tis pi|ty of him.
