Now are our brows bound with victorious wreaths, Our bruisèd arms hung up for monuments, Our stern alarums changed to merry meetings, Our dreadful marches to delightful measures. Once more we sit in England’s royal throne. Re-purchased with the blood of enemies. 00:43 How sweet a thing it is to wear a crown. Grim-visaged war hath smoothed his wrinkled front; He capers nimbly in a lady’s chamber To the lascivious pleasing of a lute. He loves the breeder better than the male. 01:03 But I, that am not shaped for sportive tricks, Nor made to court an amorous looking glass, I, that am curtailed of this fair proportion, Why, I, in this weak piping time of peace, Have no delight to pass away the time, Unless to see my shadow in the sun, And this word “love”, which graybeards call divine, Be resident in men like one another And not in me: I am myself alone. And therefore, since I cannot prove a lover 01:50 I am determinèd to prove a villain. 01:55 And yet I know not how to get the crown, For many lives stand between me and home: And I – like one lost in a thorny wood, Seeking a way and straying from the way; Not knowing how to find the open air, But toiling desperately to find it out, Torment myself to catch the English crown: And from that torment I will free myself, Or hew my way out with a bloody axe. 02:27 Why, I can smile, and murder whiles I smile, And wet my cheeks with artificial tears, And frame my face to all occasions. 02:47 I can add colours to the chameleon, Change shapes with Proteus for advantages, And set the murderous Machiavel to school. Can I do this, and cannot get a crown? Tut, were it farther off, I’ll pluck it down. _____________________ABOUT SHAKESPEARE'S GLOBEShakespeare’s Globe is a world-renowned performing arts venue, cultural attraction and education centre located on the bank of the River Thames in London, UK, and is home to the Globe Theatre and Sam Wanamaker Playhouse.We celebrate Shakespeare’s transformative impact on the world by conducting a radical theatrical experiment.

He was wont to speak plain and to the purpose, like an honest man and a soldier, and now is he turned orthography; his words are a very fantastical banquet, just so many strange dishes. 01:10 May I be so converted and see with these eyes? I cannot tell; I think not. I will not be sworn but love may transform me to an oyster, but I’ll take my oath on it, 01:35 till he have made an oyster of me, he shall never make me such a fool. One woman is fair, yet I am well; another is wise, yet I am well; another virtuous, yet I am well; but till all graces be in one woman, one woman shall not come in my grace. 02:02 Rich she shall be, that’s certain; wise, or I’ll none; virtuous, or I’ll never cheapen her; fair, or I’ll never look on her; mild, or come not near me; noble, or not I for an angel; of good discourse, an excellent musician, and her hair shall be of what color it please God. 02:25 Ha!
