SCENE VI.
Enter Orlando and Adam.
Adam.
Dear master, I can go no further; O I die for food!
here lye I down, and measure out my grave. Farewel, kind
master.
Orla.
Why how now, Adam! no greater heart in thee? live
a little, comfort a little, cheer thy self a little. If this uncouth
forest yield any thing savage, I will either be food for it, or
bring it for food to thee: thy conceit is nearer death, than thy
powers. For my sake be comfortable, hold death a while at
the arm's end: I will be here with thee presently, and if I bring
thee not something to eat, I'll give thee leave to die. But
if thou diest before I come, thou art a mocker of my labour.
Well said, thou look'st cheerly. And I'll be with thee quickly;
yet thou liest in the bleak air. Come, I will bear thee to some
shelter, and thou shalt not die for lack of a dinner, if there live
any thing in this desart. Cheerly, good Adam.
[Exeunt.
