Act I Scene I The Duke's Palace Room No.1

Duke, Chulio and other ministers are the same as above; Musician attendants

Duke & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt

If music is the food of love, then play it; Play as long as you can, so that love will suffocate. Here we go again! It has a gradually depressing rhythm. Ah! It passed by my ear like a breeze blowing a bunch of violets, making a soft sound, stealing the flowers and distributing them at the same time. Enough! Stop playing! It is not as sweet as it used to be. The spirit of love! How sensitive and lively you are; Although you have the ability like the sea, no matter how noble your ability is, once it enters your range, it will lose its value in an instant. Love is full of images, which is the most imaginative of all things.

Churio

Your highness, do you want to go hunting? Duke & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt

What, Julio?

Churio

Go deer hunting. Duke & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt

Ah, that's right, my heart is like a deer. Alas! When I first saw Olivia, I felt that the air had purified her. Then I became a deer; Since then, my lust has been chasing me like a cruel hound forever. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt

Valentine, go.

Duke & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt

What! What news has she got? & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Valentine

Report to your highness, they won't let me in. Only this answer comes from her maid's mouth: unless there are seven hot and cold summers, even the sky can't see her whole picture; Like a nun, she will walk around the bedroom with a veil every day and shed bitter tears: all this is to commemorate her love for a dead brother, and she will let her love for her brother live in a sad memory forever. Duke & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt

Alas! She has a beautiful heart, and she will love her brother to this extent. If Cupid's powerful golden arrow hits all other feelings in her heart; If only one king occupied her heart and mind-these majestic thrones and these precious treasures-then how would she love! Lead me to the fragrant flowers; Acacia trees are particularly affectionate under the shade of flowers.

The second seaside scene

Viola, captain and sailor, etc.

viola

Friends, what land is this? Captain & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt

This is Illyria, girl.

viola

What am I doing in Illyria? My brother went to Elysium. Maybe he was lucky not to drown. What do you think, sailors? Captain & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt

You are lucky to have saved your life.

viola

Alas, my poor brother! I hope he is lucky, too! Captain & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt

Yes, girl, you can comfort yourself with lucky hopes. I tell you, when our ship was wrecked, you and those who escaped with you clung to our ship shaken by the wind and waves. At that time, I saw your brother tie himself to a mast floating on the sea with great wisdom. Courage and hope taught him this trick. I saw him floating among the waves like arion (1) riding on the back of a dolphin until my eyes couldn't see him.

viola

Your words make me very happy. Please accept this money as a token of my gratitude. Because of my own escape, I hold the hope that he can escape; What you said confirmed my hope a little. Do you know anything about this country? Captain & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt

Yes, girl, very familiar; Because I grew up less than three hours away from here.

viola

Who rules this place? Captain & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt

A veritable aristocratic duke.

viola

What's his name? Captain & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt

Ossino.

viola

Ossino! I have heard my father talk about him; He was not married at that time. Captain & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt

Now he is still like this, at least I haven't heard the news of his marriage recently; Because I just started from here a month ago, there was just a fresh rumor-you know that every move of a great man will be talked about by ordinary people-that he was pursuing beautiful Olivia.

viola

Who is she? Captain & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt

She is a girl of noble character; Her father, an earl, died a year ago, leaving her in the care of his son and her brother, but he died soon. They said that out of deep affection for her brother, she vowed never to be with men again and never to see them again.

viola

Alas! If I can wait on this young lady, I won't have to expose myself before the time is right. Captain & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt

That's hard to do, because she refused to accept any kind of request, even the duke's request.

viola

Captain, you look like a good man; Although creation often uses a beautiful wall to cover up the filth inside, I can believe that your heart is as beautiful as your appearance. Please keep a secret for me and don't reveal my truth. I will thank you again in the future. You have to help me install it so that I can achieve my goal. I'm going to wait on the duke, and you can give me to him as a clean child; Maybe you will get some benefits, because I can sing and talk to him with all kinds of music, so that he can use me again.

What happened in the future?

I'll plan it. You just keep silent. Captain & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt

I am dumb, you go to be a waiter;

If you talk too much, gouge out my eyeballs.

viola

Thank you; Take me there.

Scene 3 Olivia's room 1

Sir Toby Perch and Panait Mariana.

Toby

Why does my niece take her brother's death so seriously? Sadness will ruin your life.

Panait Mariana

Really, master Toby, you have to come back early at night; Your nephew is very opposed to your staying out late at night.

Toby

Well, let her object today and tomorrow, even though she does.

Panait Mariana

Oh, but you must be measured and don't lose yourself too much.

Toby

Identity! Does this dress not suit me? It is also important to drink in this kind of clothes; And these boots, if they don't fit, let them hang on the boots.

Panait Mariana

You will embarrass yourself by drinking so much. I heard the young lady talk about it yesterday. She also talked about the silly knight you brought to propose to her one night.

Toby

Who is it? Sir Andrew Eguchi?

Panait Mariana

Yeah, that's him.

Toby

He is a handsome boy in Illyria.

Panait Mariana

What does it matter?

Toby

Well, he earns 3000 yuan a year.

Panait Mariana

Oh, but I spent all my money in one year. He is a big fool and a prodigal son.

Toby

Bah! You say such a thing! He can play the double bass; He can speak three or four languages without reading, and every word is unambiguous; He is very talented.

Panait Mariana

Yes, blessed are the fools; Because he is not only a fool, but also a guy who is used to making trouble; If he didn't have the talent of a coward to ease his quarrelsome temper, people with knowledge thought he would have a coffin to sleep in.

Toby

I swear by raising my hand that all the people who say such things are bad guys, and they are talking nonsense. Who are they?

Panait Mariana

They also said that you drink with him every night.

Toby

We all raised our glasses to my niece's health. As long as I have an esophagus in my throat and Illyria has wine, I will raise my glass to her. Anyone who doesn't want to raise a glass to my niece and drink like a clumsy top is a useless person and a despicable person. Hey, girl! Seriously! Sir Andrew Eguchi is here. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt

Sir Andrew Eguchi.

& gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Andrew

Sir Toby Perch! Hello, Sir Toby Perch!

Toby

Dear Sir Andrew! & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Andrew

Hello, beautiful little bitch!

Panait Mariana

Hello, my Lord.

Toby

A few courtesies, Sir Andrew. A few pleasantries. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Andrew

what did you say ?

Toby

This is my niece's maid. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Andrew

Sister Hao, I hope we can get to know each other better.

Panait Mariana

My name is Mary, my Lord. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Andrew

Good sister Mary Han Xuan,-

Toby

You are wrong, knight; "A few commonplaces" means to run up to entertain her, say hello, be polite and come here. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Andrew

Alas, I can't deal with her in front of these people. Is that what "greetings" mean?

Panait Mariana

Goodbye, gentlemen.

Toby

If you just let her go, Sir Andrew, you don't have to be a man anymore. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Andrew

If you leave like this, girl, I won't have to be a man anymore. Good lady, do you think you have some fools at hand?

Panait Mariana

My Lord, I haven't shaken your hand yet. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Andrew

That's easy. Let's shake hands.

Panait Mariana

Well, my Lord, the mind is free. Please take this hand to the wine counter and let it drink two cups. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Andrew

What do you say, good man? What analogy are you making?

Panait Mariana

I mean, it's boring & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Andrew

Yeah, I think so. No matter how others call me stupid, I still understand that I should protect my hands. But what joke are you talking about?

Panait Mariana

Boring jokes. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Andrew

Are you full of such jokes?

Panait Mariana

Yes, my Lord. I have everything in my hand. Ok, now that I let go of your hand, my joke is over.

(Next. )

Toby

Knights! You should have a drink. When have I ever seen you cheated like this? & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Andrew

I don't think you have seen it; Unless you see me drunk. Sometimes I feel as stupid as ordinary Christians and ordinary people; But I am a glutton who eats beef. I believe beef is harmful to my intelligence.

Toby

Sure, sure. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Andrew

If I really think that, I will have to resign in the future. Sir Toby, I will ride home tomorrow.

Toby

Pourquoi② (2), my dear knight? & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Andrew

What is Pourquoi? Good or bad? I should spend my time fencing, dancing, playing with bears and learning a few foreign languages. Alas! If only I had read literature!

Toby

If you spend some time on your curling iron, you can have good hair. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Andrew

Why, what does this have to do with my hair?

Toby

I know, because you see, your hair won't curl for a while. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Andrew

But isn't my hair beautiful enough?

Toby

Good, it looks like twine on a rotating rod. I hope some grandmother will spin you in her lap. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Andrew

Really, I'm going home tomorrow, Sir Toby. Your niece refused to see me; Even if she meets me, she probably won't want me. The duke here also proposed to her.

Toby

She doesn't want a duke. No duke; She doesn't want to marry someone who is superior to her in status, status, age and wisdom. I heard her curse like this. Hey, man, there's still hope. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Andrew

I will put it off for another month. I am the weirdest person in the world; Sometimes I always like drinking and dancing.

Toby

Are you good at winning games with this kind of thing, knight? & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Andrew

Can be comparable to Illyria, no matter who is not smarter than me; But I don't want to compete with old hands.

Toby

How are your dancing skills? & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Andrew

I won't lie to you, I can pull onions in dry land.

Toby

I can fry mutton with onions. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Andrew

When it comes to my ability to jump backwards, I can be compared with almost anyone in Illyria.

Toby

Why hide this skill? Why would such a genius close the curtains? Is it also covered with dust, like a portrait of a big girl? Why not dance "Galia" to the church and "Corlando" all the way home? If it were me, I would dance the jig, and urinating is also a five-step dance. What do you mean? Should the world hide talents? Judging from your beautiful legs, I think it was born under a dancing starlight. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Andrew

Oh, my legs are strong. I look beautiful in fire yellow socks. Shall we go for a drink?

Toby

What can we do besides drinking? Isn't our palace of life Taurus? Andrew

Taurus! Taurus rules the waist and heart.

Toby

No, man, legs and thighs. Dance for me. Ha ha! Jump higher! Ha ha! Great!

(The same below. )

People who are often sensitive can't stand a little contempt. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Olivia

Where are you from, sir?

viola

I can't say anything except what I know by heart; Your question is something I am not prepared to answer. Gentle and good man, tell me if you are a lady at home, so that I can tell you my purpose. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Olivia

Are you a singer?

viola

No, in my heart; But I dare swear in front of the most vicious enemy that I am not the role I play. Are you the lady in this house? & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Olivia

Yes, if I hadn't usurped myself.

viola

If you are her, then you have indeed usurped yourself; Because you have the right to give it to others, but you have no right to hide it. But this has nothing to do with my mission here; I will continue to compliment you and tell you my purpose. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Olivia

Say important words; Forget the compliment.

viola

Alas! I memorized it easily, which was very poetic. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Olivia

That's probably bullshit. Please keep it. I heard that you just bumped into me in front of my house; I let you in just to see who you really are, not to listen to you. If you are not crazy, then go; If you are reasonable, simply say: I am not in the mood to pay attention to a boring conversation now.

Panait Mariana

Please begin, sir; This is your way.

viola

No, good cleaner, I will stay here for a while. Dear young lady, please advise your "big fellow" not to be so cocky. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Olivia

Tell me your respect.

viola

I am a messenger. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Olivia

Your behavior is terrible. The information you brought must be bad. Say something.

viola

No one can hear you except you. I have not come to declare war on you, nor have I come to ask you to surrender; I hold an olive branch in my hand, and my words are full of peace and meaning. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Olivia

But you were rude from the beginning. Who are you? What do you want?

viola

I learned my rudeness from your reception. Who I am and what I want are secrets; What sounds sacred to you is blasphemy to others. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Olivia

You all go away; We need to listen to this sacred word.

(Panait Mariana and his entourage wait) Now, sir, may I ask your scripture?

viola

The most lovely young lady-> >; & gt& gt& gt Olivia

It is an uncomfortable teaching and can be discussed. Where are your scriptures?

viola

In Ossino's view. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Olivia

In his heart! What chapter is in his mind?

viola

According to the catalogue, this is the first chapter in his mind. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Olivia

Oh! Then I've seen it. It's nothing but heresy. Don't you have anything else to say

viola

Good lady, let me see your face. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Olivia

Is there anything your master wants to send you to contact me? You are beside the point now; But we might as well open the curtains and show you this photo.

(removing the curtain) You see, sir, I am just like this; Is the painting not good?

viola

If everything comes from the hand of God, it is a wonderful pen. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Olivia

Sir, its color is durable and can withstand the erosion of wind and frost.

viola

This is really a beautiful color mixture; Red and white are painted by nature with her lovely and dexterous hands. Miss, you are the most heartbreaking woman in the world. If you are willing to bury this beauty in the grave, don't leave a copy in the world. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Olivia

Ah! Sir, I won't be so cruel; I can make a list of my own beauty, make it clear one by one, and write every detail into my will, such as: first, two lips with moderate depth; First, a pair of gray eyes with eyelids; One, jade neck, soft, and so on. Are you ordered to come here to compliment me?

viola

I know who you are. You are too proud; But even if you are the devil, you are beautiful. My master loves you; Ah! Such a kind of love, even if you are the best in the world, you should repay him. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Olivia

How does he love me?

viola

With worship, many tears, groans of love are ringing, and the sigh of fire is suffocating. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Olivia

Your master knows what I mean, and I can't love him; Although I think his character is very high, I know that he is noble, dignified, young and pure, with a good reputation, generous, knowledgeable, brave and decent; But I can't love him. He has received my letter.

viola

If I love you as passionately as my master, and delay my life in such a painful and boring way, I won't understand what your refusal means. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Olivia

Ah, what are you going to do?

viola

I will build a hut with willow branches in front of your door and visit the soul inside from time to time; I will recite articles about cold and loyal love. No matter how deep the night is, I will sing loudly. I will shout your name to the reverberating cliff and let the rap wind call "Olivia". Ah! Unless you pity me, you won't be quiet between heaven and earth! & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Olivia

Your eloquence is impressive. What's your family background?

viola

Beyond my present situation, but I am a scholar with status. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Olivia

Go back to your master; I can't love him and tell him not to send anyone; Unless or you come to see me again and tell me what he thinks of my answer. See you thank you for your hard work; Here is some money for you.

viola

I am not a messenger asking for money, miss, keep your money; It was my master, not me, who never got paid. I hope God's love can make the person you love feel like a stone, and your enthusiasm will be despised as my master's! Farewell, lovely beauty!

(Next. )

& gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Olivia

"How is your family?" Beyond my present situation, but I am a scholar with status. "I can swear that you must be; Your tone of voice, your face, your body, movements and spirit can all prove your nobility. -Don't be so impatient. Wait a minute! Wait a minute! Unless the title of master and servant is reversed. -What? Are you going to get sick so soon? I feel that the beauty of this teenager seems to have crept into my eyes. All right, forget it. Hey! Malfurion! & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt

Malfurion, go home.

Maforio

Yes, miss, at your service. & gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Olivia

Go after that rude messenger, the man sent by the duke, who insisted on keeping this ring, whether I want it or not; Tell him I don't want it, and tell him not to contribute to his master, so that he won't die. I have no fate with him. If the boy passes by here again tomorrow, I can tell him why. Go ahead, maverick.

Maforio

Yes, miss.

(Next. )

& gt& gt& gt& gt& gt Olivia

I don't know what I'm doing,

How can you have a crush on someone at once?

Everything, but by the command of fate,

Who can be their own master!
