(Exeunt Curio and attendants),
Once more, Cesario,
Get thee to yond same sovereign cruelty;
Tell her, my love, more noble than the world,
Prizes, not quantity of dirty land,
The parts that forune hath bestowed upon her,
Tell her, I hold as giddily as fortune,
But 'tis that miracles and queen of gems
that nature pranks her in, attracts my soul.
