Measure For Measure — Scene 1. (Part 10 of 10)

ESCALUS

To my house. Fare you well.
Exit ELBOW
What's o'clock, think you?

Justice

Eleven, sir.

ESCALUS

I pray you home to dinner with me.

Justice

I humbly thank you.

ESCALUS

It grieves me for the death of Claudio;
But there's no remedy.

Justice

Lord Angelo is severe.

ESCALUS

It is but needful:
Mercy is not itself, that oft looks so;
Pardon is still the nurse of second woe:
But yet, –poor Claudio! There is no remedy.
Come, sir.

Exeunt
