out of all count. _Val._ How painted? and how out of count? _Speed._ Marry, sir, so painted, to make her fair, that no man counts of her beauty. _Val._ How esteemest thou me? I account of her beauty. 55 _Speed._ You never saw her since she was deformed. _Val._ How long hath she been deformed? _Speed._ Ever since you loved her. _Val._ I have loved her ever since I saw her; and still I see her beautiful. 60 _Speed._ If you love her, you cannot see her. _Val._ Why? _Speed._ Because Love is blind. O, that you had mine eyes; or your own eyes had the lights they were wont to have when you chid at Sir Proteus for going ungartered! 65 _Val._ What should I see then? _Speed._ Your own present folly, and her passing deformity: for he, being in love, could not see to garter his hose; and you, being in love, cannot see to put on your hose. _Val._ Belike, boy, then, you are in love; for last morning 70 you could not see to wipe my shoes. _Speed._ True, sir; I was in love with my bed: I thank you, you swinged me for my love, which makes me the bolder to chide you for yours. _Val._ In conclusion, I stand affected to her. 75 _Speed._ I would you were set, so your affection would cease. _Val._ Last night she enjoined me to write some lines to one she loves. _Speed._ And have you? 80 _Val._ I have. _Speed._ Are they not lamely writ? _Val._ No, boy, but as well as I can do them. Peace! here she comes. _Speed._ [_Aside_] O excellent motion! O exceeding puppet! 85 Now will he interpret to her. _Enter SILVIA._ _Val._ Madam and mistress, a thousand good-morrows. _Speed._ [_Aside_] O, give ye good even! here's a million of manners. _Sil._ Sir Valentine and servant, to you two thousand. 90 _Speed._ [_Aside_] He should give her interest, and she gives it him. _Val._ As you enjoin'd me, I have writ your letter Unto the secret nameless friend of yours; Which I was much unwilling to proceed in, 95 But for my duty to your ladyship. _Sil._ I thank you, gentle servant: 'tis very clerkly done. _Val._ Now trust me, madam, it came hardly off; For, being ignorant to whom it goes, I writ at random, very doubtfully. 100 _Sil._ Perchance you think too much
