An thou hadst not come to my bed. How long hath she been thus? I hope all will be well. We must be patient: but I cannot choose but weep, to think they should lay him i' the cold ground. My brother shall know of it: and so I thank you for your good counsel. Come, my coach! Good night, ladies; good night, sweet ladies; good night, good night.

I pray you, give me leave. We will, we will. I thank you: keep the door. O thou vile king, Give me my father! Calmly, good Laertes.
