Template:Dsh conference calls

Revision as of 17:20, 8 April 2022 by Amwelladmin (talk | contribs)

TRIAGO: Good colleagues: there are but twenty minutes left.
Wouldst you thy precious time reclaim;
Or may we keep afoot our infinite game
With more, or any other, business? Search anew,
What items canst be tabled without ado?
GLOUCESTER: Nothing sire.
KENT: Nor from I.

A period of silence around the table.

QUEEN (aside): That irksome twerp.
A world of richness awaits this piffling parley.
TRIAGO: How say you, brave Herculio?
What doth the gods portend?
HERCULIO: The gods? The gods? I think you jest.
Th’almighty has no use for paltry conference.
TRIAGO: I think he does sirrah!
QUEEN: Oh, ho! How so?
What matters lie upon thy parchèd record
Yet unknown by sacred holy mind?
Whose cogs and toothèd gears
And immaculate escapements
All history — gone and yet to come — defined?
What need hath she, or he
Who bid the lion lay with lamb
For this dismal convention?
FOOL: Thou maketh me to meet
Therefore I am.
TRIAGO: How should I know?
QUEEN: Quite so, good sir, quite so. I must away.
Maketh thou the time-ball drop.

Exit QUEEN

HERCULIO: With all my heart, my Liege —
One has to hop.

Exeunt
