Twelfth Night | Act V, Scene I - Page 4

DUKE ORSINO:: Pursue him, and entreat him to a peace:
He hath not told us of the captain yet:
When that is known and golden time convents,(395)
A solemn combination shall be made
Of our dear souls. Meantime, sweet sister,
We will not part from hence. Cesario, come:
For so you shall be, while you are a man;
But when in other habits you are seen,(400)
Orsino's mistress, and his fancy's queen.

[Exeunt.]

CLOWN:: [Sings]
When that I was and a little tiny boy,
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain,
A foolish thing was but a toy,
For the rain it raineth every day.
But when I came to man's estate,(405)
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain,
'Gainst knave and thief men shut their gate,
For the rain it raineth every day.
But when I came, alas, to wive,
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain,(410)
By swaggering could I never thrive,
For the rain it raineth every day.
But when I came unto my beds,
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain,
With toss-pots still had drunken heads,
For the rain it raineth every day.(415)
A great while ago the world begun,
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain,
But that's all one, our play is done,
And we'll strive to please you every day.

[Exit.]
