CELIA. Herein I see thou lov'st me not with the full weight
that I
love thee. If my uncle, thy banished father, had banished thy
uncle, the Duke my father, so thou hadst been still with me,
I
could have taught my love to take thy father for mine; so
wouldst
thou, if the truth of thy love to me were so righteously
temper'd
as mine is to thee.
ROSALIND. Well, I will forget the condition of my estate, to
rejoice in yours.
CELIA. You know my father hath no child but I, nor none is like
to
have; and, truly, when he dies thou shalt be his heir; for
what
he hath taken away from thy father perforce, I will render
thee
again in affection. By mine honour, I will; and when I break
that
oath, let me turn monster; therefore, my sweet Rose, my dear
Rose, be merry.
ROSALIND. From henceforth I will, coz, and devise sports.
Let me see; what think you of falling in love?
CELIA. Marry, I prithee, do, to make sport withal; but love no
man
in good earnest, nor no further in sport neither than with
safety
of a pure blush thou mayst in honour come off again.
