Love’s Labor’s Lost

I will overglance the superscript : To
the snow-white hand of the most beauteous Lady
Rosaline . I will look again on the intellect of the
letter for the nomination of the party writing to
the person written unto : Your Ladyship’s in all
desired employment , Berowne . Sir Nathaniel , this
Berowne is one of the votaries with the King , and
here he hath framed a letter to a sequent of the
stranger queen’s : which accidentally , or by the way
of progression , hath miscarried .
Trip and go , my sweet . Deliver this paper into the
royal hand of the King . It may concern much . Stay
not thy compliment . I forgive thy duty . Adieu .
