Cordelia, mend your speech a little,
:13:23

:13:33
Good my lord,
you have begot me,

:13:36
bred me, loved me.

and as a stranger to my heart and me

:14:38
hold thee, from this, for ever!
:14:40
Peace, Kent!
:14:42
I loved her most,
:14:44
and thought to set my rest
on her kind nursery.

:14:47
Hence, and avoid my sight!
:14:50
Call France!
Call Burgundy!

:14:55
Cornwall and Albany, with my two
daughters' dowers digest this third.

:14:59
Let pride, which she calls plainness,
marry her.
