     Scene I。 A hall in ANGELO'S house 

     Enter   ANGELO�察        �ESCALUS�察       �a  JUSTICE�察     �PROVOST�察       �OFFICERS�察�

and other ATTENDANTS 

       ANGELO。 We must not make a scarecrow of the law�察�Setting it up to 

fear the birds of prey�察�And let it keep one shape till custom make it Their 

perch�察  �and   not   their   terror。   ESCALUS。 Ay�察  �but   yet   Let   us   be   keen�察  �and 

rather   cut   a   little   Than   fall   and   bruise   to   death。   Alas�   �this   gentleman�察�

Whom I would save�察�had a most noble father。 Let but your honour know�察�

Whom I believe to be most strait in virtue�察�That�察�in the working of your 

own   affections�察  �Had   time   coher'd   with   place�察  �or   place   with   wishing�察  �Or 

that the resolute acting of our blood Could have attain'd th' effect of your 

own purpose Whether you had not sometime in your life Err'd in this point 

which now you censure him�察�And pull'd the law upon you。 ANGELO。 'Tis 

one thing to be tempted�察�Escalus�察�Another thing to fall。 I not deny The jury�察�

passing on the prisoner's life�察�May in the sworn twelve have a thief or two 

Guiltier than him they try。 What's open made to justice�察�That justice seizes。 

What knows the laws That thieves do pass on thieves�拭�'Tis very pregnant�察�

The jewel that we find�察�we stoop and take't�察�Because we see it�察�but what 

we   do   not   see   We   tread   upon�察  �and   never   think   of   it。   You   may   not   so 

extenuate his offence For I have had such faults�察�but rather tell me�察�When I�察�

that   censure   him�察  �do   so   offend�察  �Let   mine   own   judgment   pattern   out   my 

death�察�And nothing come in partial。 Sir�察�he must die。 ESCALUS。 Be it as 

your wisdom will。 ANGELO。 Where is the Provost�拭�PROVOST。 Here�察�if it 

like   your   honour。  ANGELO。   See   that   Claudio   Be   executed   by   nine   to´ 

morrow morning�察�Bring him his confessor�察�let him be prepar'd�察�For that's 

the utmost   of   his   pilgrimage。   Exit   PROVOST  ESCALUS。   ��Aside�А�Well�察�

heaven   forgive   him�   �and   forgive   us   all�   �Some   rise   by   sin�察  �and   some   by 

virtue   fall�察  �Some   run   from   breaks   of   ice�察  �and   answer   none�察  �And   some 

condemned for a fault alone。 

       Enter ELBOW and OFFICERS with FROTH and POMPEY 

       ELBOW。       Come�察    �bring   them   away�察    �if  these  be  good    people    in  a 

commonweal   that   do   nothing   but   use   their   abuses   in   common   houses�察  �I 

know   no   law�察  �bring   them   away。 ANGELO。   How   now�察  �sir�   �What's   your 

name�察�and what's the matter�拭�ELBOW。 If it please your honour�察�I am the

poor Duke's constable�察�and my name is Elbow�察�I do lean upon justice�察�sir�察�

and do bring in here before your good honour two notorious benefactors。 

ANGELO。   Benefactors�   �Well´   what   benefactors   are   they�拭  �Are   they   not 

malefactors�拭�ELBOW。 If it please your honour�察�I know not well what they 

are�察  �but   precise   villains   they   are�察 �that  I  am   sure   of�察 �and  void   of   all 

profanation in the world that good Christians ought to have。 ESCALUS。 

This comes off well�察�here's a wise officer。 ANGELO。 Go to�察�what quality 

are   they   of�拭  �Elbow   is   your   name�拭  �Why   dost   thou   not   speak�察  �Elbow�拭�

POMPEY。 He cannot�察�sir�察�he's out at elbow。 ANGELO。 What are you�察�sir�拭�

ELBOW。 He�察�sir�拭�A tapster�察�sir�察�parcel´bawd�察�one that serves a bad woman�察�

whose house�察�sir�察�was�察�as they say�察�pluck'd down in the suburbs�察�and now 

she    professes    a   hot´house�察   �which�察   �I  think�察  �is  a  very    ill  house   too。 

ESCALUS。  How  know  you   that�拭  �ELBOW。   My  wife�察 �sir�察 �whom  I   detest 

before heaven and your honour´ ESCALUS。 How� �thy wife� �ELBOW。 Ay�察�

sir�察  �whom   I   thank   heaven�察  �is   an   honest   woman´   ESCALUS。   Dost   thou 

detest her therefore�拭�ELBOW。 I say�察�sir�察�I will detest myself also�察�as well 

as she�察�that this house�察�if it be not a bawd's house�察�it is pity of her life�察�for 

it is   a   naughty  house。   ESCALUS。  How   dost   thou   know   that�察  �constable�拭�

ELBOW。 Marry�察�sir�察�by my wife�察�who�察�if she had been a woman cardinally 

given�察    �might     have    been    accus'd    in   fornication�察    �adultery�察   �and    all 

uncleanliness there。 ESCALUS。 By the woman's means�拭�ELBOW。 Ay�察�sir�察�

by Mistress Overdone's means�察�but as she spit in his face�察�so she defied 

him。 POMPEY。 Sir�察�if it please your honour�察�this is not so。 ELBOW。 Prove 

it before these varlets here�察�thou honourable man�察�prove it。 ESCALUS。 Do 

you hear how he misplaces�拭�POMPEY。 Sir�察�she came in great with child�察�

and   longing�察  �saving   your   honour's   reverence�察  �for   stew'd   prunes。   Sir�察  �we 

had but two in the house�察�which at that very distant time stood�察�as it were�察�

in a fruit dish�察�a dish of some three pence�察�your honours have seen such 

dishes�察�they are not China dishes�察�but very good dishes。 ESCALUS。 Go to�察�

go to�察�no matter for the dish�察�sir。 POMPEY。 No�察�indeed�察�sir�察�not of a pin�察�

you are therein in the right�察�but to the point。 As I say�察�this Mistress Elbow�察�

being�察�as I say�察�with child�察�and being great´bellied�察�and longing�察�as I said�察�

for prunes�察�and having but two in the dish�察�as I said�察�Master Froth here�察�

this very   man�察 �having   eaten   the   rest�察  �as   I   said�察  �and�察 �as   I say�察  �paying   for

them very honestly�察�for�察�as you know�察�Master Froth�察�I could not give you 

three pence again´ FROTH。 No�察�indeed。 POMPEY。 Very well�察�you being 

then�察  �if   you   be   rememb'red�察  �cracking   the   stones   of   the   foresaid   prunes´ 

FROTH。 Ay�察�so I did indeed。 POMPEY。 Why�察�very well�察�I telling you then�察�

if you be rememb'red�察�that such a one and such a one were past cure of the 

thing you wot of�察�unless they kept very good diet�察�as I told you´ FROTH。 

All this is true。  POMPEY。 Why�察�very  well   then´ ESCALUS。  Come�察  �you 

are a tedious fool。 To the purpose�此�what was done to Elbow's wife that he 

hath cause to complain of�拭�Come me to what was done to her。 POMPEY。 

Sir�察�your honour cannot come to that yet。 ESCALUS。 No�察�sir�察�nor I mean it 

not。 POMPEY。 Sir�察�but you shall come to it�察�by your honour's leave。 And�察�I 

beseech you�察�look into Master Froth here�察�sir�察�a man of fourscore pound a 

year�察  �whose   father   died   at   Hallowmas´   was't   not   at   Hallowmas�察  �Master 

Froth�拭�FROTH。 All´hallond eve。 POMPEY。 Why�察�very well�察�I hope here 

be truths。 He�察�sir�察�sitting�察�as I say�察�in a lower chair�察�sir�察�'twas in the Bunch 

of Grapes�察�where�察�indeed�察�you have a delight to sit�察�have you not�拭�FROTH。 

I have so�察�because it is an open room�察�and good for winter。 POMPEY。 Why�察�

very well then�察�I hope here be truths。 ANGELO。 This will last out a night 

in Russia�察�When nights are longest there�察�I'll take my leave�察�And leave you 

to the hearing of the cause�察�Hoping you'll find good cause to whip them all。 

ESCALUS。         I  think   no   less。   Good    morrow      to  your    lordship。   ��Exit
