SCENE I. A public place.
CENA I. Um lugar público.
Enter Sampson and Gregory armed with swords and bucklers.
Entram Sampson e Gregory armados com espadas e escudos.
SAMPSON.
SAMPSON.
Gregory, on my word, we'll not carry coals.
Gregory, pela minha palavra, não carregaremos carvão.
GREGORY.
GREGORY.
No, for then we should be colliers.
Não, pois então seríamos carvoeiros.
SAMPSON.
SAMPSON.
I mean, if we be in choler, we'll draw.
Quero dizer, se estivermos irados, sacaremos as espadas.
GREGORY.
GREGORY.
Ay, while you live, draw your neck out o' the collar.
Sim, enquanto viveres, tira o teu pescoço da coleira.
SAMPSON.
SAMPSON.
I strike quickly, being moved.
Golpeio rapidamente quando sou provocado.
GREGORY.
GREGORY.
But thou art not quickly moved to strike.
Mas não és facilmente provocado a golpear.
SAMPSON.
SAMPSON.
A dog of the house of Montague moves me.
Um cão da casa de Montague me provoca.
GREGORY.
GREGORY.
To move is to stir; and to be valiant is to stand: therefore, if thou art moved, thou runn'st away.
Mover é agitar-se; e ser valente é manter-se firme: portanto, se és movido, é porque foges.
SAMPSON.
SAMPSON.
A dog of that house shall move me to stand. I will take the wall of any man or maid of Montague's.
Um cão dessa casa me moverá a manter-me firme. Tomarei o lado da parede de qualquer homem ou donzela dos Montague.
GREGORY.
GREGORY.
That shows thee a weak slave, for the weakest goes to the wall.
Isso te mostra um escravo fraco, pois o mais fraco vai para a parede.
SAMPSON.
SAMPSON.
True, and therefore women, being the weaker vessels, are ever thrust to the wall: therefore I will push Montague's men from the wall, and thrust his maids to the wall.
Verdade, e por isso as mulheres, sendo os vasos mais frágeis, são sempre empurradas para a parede: portanto empurrarei os homens de Montague para longe da parede, e encurralarei as suas donzelas contra a parede.
GREGORY.
GREGORY.
The quarrel is between our masters and us their men.
A disputa é entre os nossos amos e nós, os seus homens.
SAMPSON.
SAMPSON.
'Tis all one, I will show myself a tyrant: when I have fought with the men I will be civil with the maids, I will cut off their heads.
Tanto faz, mostrarei que sou um tirano: quando tiver combatido com os homens serei civilizado com as donzelas, cortarei as suas cabeças.
GREGORY.
GREGORY.
The heads of the maids?
As cabeças das donzelas?
SAMPSON.
SAMPSON.
Ay, the heads of the maids, or their maidenheads; take it in what sense thou wilt.
Sim, as cabeças das donzelas, ou as suas virginidades; entende como quiseres.
GREGORY.
GREGORY.
They must take it in sense that feel it.
Devem entendê-lo no sentido em que o sentem.
SAMPSON.
SAMPSON.
