Sit down awhile;
And let us once again assail your ears,
That are so fortified against our story
What we have two nights seen.
-Bernardo to Horatio
ACT I scene i
I would not hear your enemy say so,
Nor shall you do mine ear that violence,
To make it truster of your own report
Against yourself: I know you are no truant.
-Hamlet to Horatio
ACT I scene ii
Season your admiration for awhile
With an attent ear, till I may deliver,
Upon the witness of these gentlemen,
This marvel to you.
-Horatio to Hamlet
ACT I scene ii
Then if he says he loves you,
It fits your wisdom so far to believe it
As he in his particular act and place
May give his saying deed; which is no further
Than the main voice of Denmark goes withal.
Then weigh what loss your honour may sustain,
If with too credent ear you list his songs,
Or lose your heart, or your chaste treasure open
To his unmaster'd importunity.
-Laertes to Ophelia
