SCENE VI.
The same. Another Room in the same.
Enter Horatio, and a Servant.
Hor.
What are they, that would speak with me?
Ser.
Sailors, sir; note
They say, they have letters for you.
Hor.
Let them come in.—
[Exit Servant.
I do not know from what part of the world
I should be greeted, if not from lord Hamlet.
Enter Sailors.
1. S.
God bless you, sir.
Hor.
Let him bless thee too.
1. S.
He shall note, sir, an't please him. There's &dagger2; a letter
for you, sir: it comes note from th' embassador note, that was bound
for England; if your name be Horatio, as I am let to know
it is.
Hor. [reads.]
Horatio, when thou shalt have over-look'd
this, give these fellows some means to the king; they have
letters for him. Ere we were two days old at sea, a pirate
of very warlike appointment gave us chace: Finding
ourselves too slow of sail, we put on a compell'd valour:
in note the grapple, I boarded them: on the instant, they got
clear of our ship; so I alone became their prisoner: They
have dealt with me like thieves of mercy: but they knew
what they did; I am to do a turn note for them. Let the king
have the letters I have sent; and repair thou to me, with
as much speed as note thou would'st fly death: I have words to
speak in thine ear, note will make thee dumb; yet are they much
too light for the bore of note the matter: these good fellows
will bring thee where I am. Rosincrantz, and Guildenstern,
hold their course for England: of them I have
-- 105 --
much to tell thee. Farewel. He that note thou knowest thine,
Hamlet.
Come, I will give you way for these your letters;
And do't the speedier, that you may direct me
To him from whom you brought them.
[Exeunt.
