Two Gentlemen of Verona Act 5 Scene 4 William Shakespeare

                         SCENE IV. Another part of the forest.

      Enter VALENTINE

VALENTINE
      How use doth breed a habit in a man!
      This shadowy desert, unfrequented woods,
      I better brook than flourishing peopled towns:
      Here can I sit alone, unseen of any,
      And to the nightingale's complaining notes
      Tune my distresses and record my woes.
      O thou that dost inhabit in my breast,
      Leave not the mansion so long tenantless,
      Lest, growing ruinous, the building fall
      And leave no memory of what it was!
      Repair me with thy presence, Silvia;
      Thou gentle nymph, cherish thy forlorn swain!
      What halloing and what stir is this to-day?
      These are my mates, that make their wills their law,
      Have some unhappy passenger in chase.
      They love me well; yet I have much to do
      To keep them from uncivil outrages.
      Withdraw thee, Valentine: who's this comes here?

      Enter PROTEUS, SILVIA, and JULIA
