Great men That had a court no bigger than this cave

Imogen
Great men
That had a court no bigger than this cave,

Pardon me, gods!
I’d change my sex to be companion with them,

That did attend themselves and had the virtue
Which their own conscience sealed them, laying by
That nothing-gift of differing multitudes,
Could not outpeer these twain. Pardon me, gods!
I’d change my sex to be companion with them,
Since Leonatus false.
