wife; whom he now loved when it was too late。
〃Love that is late offends the Great Sender;〃 said the King。 〃Forget sweet Helena; and give a ring to Magdalen。〃
Bertram immediately gave a ring to Lafeu; who said indignantly; 〃It's Helena's!〃
〃It's not!〃 said Bertram。
Hereupon the King asked to look at the ring; and said; 〃This is the ring I gave to Helena; and bade her send to me if ever she needed help。 So you had the cunning to get from her what could help her most。〃
Bertram denied again that the ring was Helena's; but even his mother said it was。
〃You lie!〃 exclaimed the King。 〃Seize him; guards!〃 but even while they were seizing him; Bertram wondered how the ring; which he thought Diana had given him; came to be so like Helena's。 A gentleman now entered; craving permission to deliver a petition to the King。 It was a petition signed Diana Capilet; and it begged that the King would order Bertram to marry her whom he had deserted after winning her love。
〃I'd sooner buy a son…in…law at a fair than take Bertram now;〃 said Lafeu。
〃Admit the petitioner;〃 said the King。
Bertram found himself confronted by Diana and her mother。 He denied that Diana had any claim on him; and spoke of her as though her life was spent in the gutter。 But she asked him what sort of gentlewoman it was to whom he gave; as to her he gave; the ring of his ancestors now missing from his finger?
Bertram was ready to sink into the earth; but fate had one crowning generosity reserved for him。 Helena entered。
〃Do I see reality?〃 asked the King。
〃O pardon! pardon!〃 cried Bertram。
She held up his ancestral ring。 〃Now that I have this;〃 said she; 〃will you love me; Bertram?〃
〃To the end of my life;〃 cried he。
〃My eyes smell onions;〃 said Lafeu。 Tears for Helena were twinkling in them。
The King praised Diana when he was fully informed by that not very shy young lady of the meaning of her conduct。 For Helena's sake she had wished to expose Bertram's meanness; not only to the King; but to himself。 His pride was now in shreds; and it is believed that he made a husband of some sort after all。

QUOTATIONS FROM SHAKESPEARE
ACTION。
Action is eloquence; and the eyes of the ignorant More learned than their ears。
Coriolanus III。 2。
ADVERSITY。
Sweet are the uses of adversity; Which; like the toad; ugly and venomous; Wears yet a precious jewel in his head。
As You Like It II。 1。
That; Sir; which serves and seeks for gain; And follows but for form; Will pack; when it begins to rain; And leave thee in the storm。
King Lear II。 4。
Ah! when the means are gone; that buy this praise; The breath is gone whereof this praise is made: Feast wonfast lost; one cloud of winter showers; These flies are couched。
Timon of Athens II。 2。
ADVICE TO A SON LEAVING HOME。
Give thy thoughts no tongue; Nor any unproportioned thought his act Be thou familiar; but by no means vulgar。 The friends thou hast; and their adoption tried Grapple them to thy soul with hooks of steel; But do not dull thy palm with entertainment Of each new…hatched; unfledged comrade。 Beware Of entrance to a quarrel: but; being in; Bear it; that the opposer may beware of thee。 Give every man thine ear; but few thy voice: Take each man's censure; but reserve thy judgment; Costly thy habit as thy purse can buy; But not expressed in fancy: rich; not gaudy: For the apparel oft proclaims the man; And they in France; of the best rank and station; Are most select and generous; chief in that。 Neither a borrower; nor a lender be: For loan oft loses both itself and friend; And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry。 This above all。To thine ownself be true; And it must follow; as the night the day; Thou canst not then be false to any man。
Hamlet I。 3。
AGE。
My May of life Is fallen into the sear; the yellow leaf: And that which should accompany old age; As honor; love; obedience; troops of friends; I must not look to have; but; in their stead; Curses not loud; but deep; mouth…honor; breath; Which the poor heart would feign deny; but dare not。
Macbeth V。 3。
AMBITION。
Dreams; indeed; are ambition; for the very substance of the ambitious is merely the shadow of a dream。 And I hold ambition of so airy and light a quality; that it is but a shadow's shadow。
Hamlet II 2。
I charge thee fling away ambition; By that sin fell the angels; how can man then; The image of his Maker; hope to win by 't? Love thyself last; cherish those hearts that hate thee; Corruption wins not more than honesty。 Still in thy right hand carry gentle peace; To silence envious tongues。 Be just; and fear not! Let all the ends; thou aim'st at; be thy country's; Thy God's; and truth's。
King Henry VIII。 III。 2。
ANGER。
Anger is like A full…hot horse; who being allowed his way; Self…mettle tires him。
King Henry VIII。 I。 1。
ARROGANCE。
There are a sort of men; whose visages Do cream and mantle like a standing pond; And do a willful stillness entertain; With purpose to be dressed in an opinion Of wisdom; gravity; profound conceit; As who should say; 〃 I am Sir Oracle; And when I ope my lips; let no dog bark!〃 O! my Antonio; I do know of these That therefore are reputed wise For saying nothing; when; I am sure; If they should speak; would almost dam those ears; Which; hearing them; would call their brothers fools。
The Merchant of Venice I。 1。
AUTHORITY。
Thou hast seen a farmer's dog bark at a beggar? And the creature run from the cur? There thou might'st behold the great image of authority a dog's obeyed in office。
King Lear IV。 6。
Could great men thunder As Jove himself does; Jove would ne'er be quiet; For every pelting; petty officer Would use his heaven for thunder: nothing but thunder Merciful heaven! Thou rather; with thy sharp
