第 121 頁 - Now, gentle Gods, give Gloster his Discharge. LEAR No, Gloster, Thou hast Business yet for Life; Thou Kent and I, retir'd to some cool Cell Will gently pass our short reserves of Time In calm Reflections on our Fortunes past, Cheer'd with relation of the prosperous Reign Of this celestial Pair; Thus our Remains Shall in an even Course of Thought be past, Enjoy the present Hour, nor fear the Last.
