  • I shall, my lord.
    Pol.
    And let him ply his music.
    Rey.
    Well, my lord.
    Pol.
    Farewell!
    [Exit Reynaldo.]
    [Enter Ophelia.]
    How now, Ophelia! what's the matter?
    Oph.
    Alas, my lord, I have been so affrighted!
    Pol.
    With what, i' the name of God?
    Oph.
    My lord, as I was sewing in my chamber,
    Lord Hamlet,­with his doublet all unbrac'd;
    No hat upon his head; his stockings foul'd,
    Ungart'red, and down-gyved to his ankle;
    Pale as his shirt; his knees knocking each other;
    And with a look so piteous in purport
    As if he had been loosed out of hell
    To speak of horrors,­he comes before me.
    Pol.
    Mad for thy love?
    Oph.
    My lord, I do not know;
    But truly I do fear it.
    Pol.
    What said he?
    Oph.
    He took me by the wrist, and held me hard;
    Then goes he to the length of all his arm;
    And with his other hand thus o'er his brow,
    He falls to such perusal of my face
    As he would draw it. Long stay'd he so;
    At last,­a little shaking of mine arm,
    And thrice his head thus waving up and down,­
