[Alarum within. Enter, with drum and colours, Lear, Cordelia, and their Forces, and exeunt.]

[Enter Edgar and Gloster.]

Edg.

Here, father, take the shadow of this tree

For your good host; pray that the right may thrive:

If ever I return to you again,

I’ll bring you comfort.

Glou.

Grace go with you, sir!

[Exit Edgar].

[Alarum and retreat within. R-enter Edgar.]

Edg.

Away, old man,—give me thy hand,—away!

King Lear hath lost, he and his daughter ta’en:

Give me thy hand; come on!

Glou.

No further, sir; a man may rot even here.

Edg.

What, in ill thoughts again? Men must endure

Their going hence, even as their coming hither;

Ripeness is all:—come on.

Glou.

And that’s true too.

[Exeunt.]
