Sebastian:
[Gonzalo and King Alonzo fall asleep]
What a strange drowsiness possesses them. Antonio:
'Tis the quality o' the climate. Sebastian:
Why doth it not then our eyelids sink? I find not myself disposed to sleep. Antonio:
Nor I. My spirits are nimble. They fell together as by consent. They dropp'd, as by a thunder-stroke. What might, worthy Sebastian? O, what might? No more. And yet methinks I see it in thy face what thou shouldst be: the occasion speaks thee, and my strong imagination sees a crown dropping upon thy head. Sebastian:
What? Art thou waking? Antonio:
Do you not hear me speak? Sebastian:
I do. And surely 'tis a sleepy language and thou speak'st out of thy sleep. What is it thou didst say? This is a strange repose, to be asleep with eyes wide open. Standing, speaking, moving, and yet so fast asleep. Antonio:
Noble Sebastian, thou let'st thy fortune sleep. Die, rather. Wink'st whiles thou art waking. Sebastian:
Thou dost snore, distinctly. There's meaning in thy snores. Antonio:
I more serious than my custom. You must be too, if heed me, which to do trebles thee o'er. Sebastian:
Well... I am standing water. Antonio:
I'll teach you how to flow. Sebastian:
Do so. To ebb hereditary sloth instructs me
