ACT III.
SCENE I. _A heath._
_Storm still. Enter_ KENT _and a_ Gentleman, _meeting_.[3541]
_Kent._ Who's there, besides foul weather?[3542]
_Gent._ One minded like the weather, most unquietly.
_Kent._ I know you. Where's the king?
_Gent._ Contending with the fretful elements;[3543]
Bids the wind blow the earth into the sea, 5
Or swell the curled waters 'bove the main,[3544]
That things might change or cease; tears his white hair,[3545]
Which the impetuous blasts, with eyeless rage,[3545]
Catch in their fury, and make nothing of;[3545]
Strives in his little world of man to out-scorn[3545][3546][3547] 10
The to-and-fro-conflicting wind and rain.[3545][3546][3548]
This night, wherein the cub-drawn bear would couch,[3545][3549]
The lion and the belly-pinched wolf[3545][3550]
Keep their fur dry, unbonneted he runs,[3545]
And bids what will take all.[3545]
_Kent._ But who is with him? 15
_Gent._ None but the fool; who labours to out-jest
His heart-struck injuries.[3551]
