Look thou character. Give thy thoughts

no tongue,

Nor any unproportion'd thought his act.

Be thou familiar, but by no means vulgar.

Those friends thou hast, and their adoption tried,

Grapple them unto thy soul with hoops of steel;

But do not dull thy palm with entertainment

Of each new-hatch'd, unfledg'd comrade. Beware

Of entrance to a quarrel; but being in,

Bear't that th'opposed may beware of thee.

Give every man thine ear, but few thy voice:

Take each man's censure, but reserve

thy judgement.

Costly thy habit as thy purse can buy,

But not express'd in fancy; rich, not gaudy:

For the apparel oft proclaims the man;

And they in France of the best rank and station

Are of a most select and generous chief in that.

Neither a borrower nor a lender be:

For loan oft loses both itself and friend;

And borrowing dulls the edge of husbandry.

This above all: to thine own self be true;

And it must follow, as the night the day,

Thou canst not then be false to any man.

Farewell: my blessing season this in thee.

Laertes

Most humbly do I take my leave, my lord.

Polonius

The time invites you; go, your servants tend.

Laertes

Farewell, Ophelia, and remember well

What I have said to you.

Ophelia

'Tis in my memory lock'd,

And you yourself shall keep the key of it.

Laertes

Farewell.

[Exit]

Polonius

What is't, Ophelia, he hath said to you?

Ophelia

So please you, something touching

the Lord Hamlet.

Polonius

Marry, well bethought:

'Tis told me he hath very oft of late

Given private time to you; and you yourself

Have of your audience been most free

and bounteous.

If it be so, – as so 'tis put on me,
