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.

Read the extract below and answer questions:

A : Would you'd pardon me
I do not without danger walk these streets;

I did some service-of such note, indeed.

A : The offence is not of such a bloody nature,
Albeit the quality of the time and quarrel
Might well have given us bloody argument
