QUOTES FROM THE BARD
PLAY: Timon of Athens
ACT/SCENE: 3.6
SPEAKER: Fourth Lord
CONTEXT:
FIRST LORD
He’s but a mad lord, and nought but humour sways him.
He gave me a jewel th’ other day, and now he has
beat it out of my hat: did you see my jewel?
THIRD LORD
Did you see my cap?
SECOND LORD
Here ’tis.
FOURTH LORD
Here lies my gown.
FIRST LORD
Let’s make no stay.
SECOND LORD
Lord Timon’s mad.
THIRD LORD
I feel ‘t upon my bones.
FOURTH LORD
One day he gives us diamonds, next day stones.
DUTCH:
Juweelen gaf hij gist’ren, heden steenen.
MORE:
Burgersdijk notes:
Juweelen gaf hij gist’ren, heden steenen. In het op blz 477 vermelde stuk liggen er als artisjokken beschilderde steenen in de schotels en begroet Timon met deze zijn gasten.
