Give me the daggers: the sleeping and the dead LADY 1VAi...iSIitI Are but as pictures: tis the eye of childhood That fears a painted devil. If he do bleed, How is t with me, when every noise appals me? Will all great Neptune s ocean wash this blood A little water clears us of this deed: Hark! more knocking. LADY Re-enter LADY Exit. Knocking within For it must seem their guilt. Whence is that knocking? Clean from my hand? No, this my hand will rather What hands are here? ha! they pluck out mine eyes. Making the green one red.
