About the Book

While the word "gentlemen" suggests that its heroes are adults, The Two Gentlemen of Verona is more intelligible if we think of them as boys, leaving home for the first time. One has a crush on a girl, Julia, though he hasn't yet told her.Sent to court to learn to be "perfect gentlemen," Valentine and Proteus are derailed by their attraction to Sylvia, the ruler's daughter. Valentine's mental denseness does not deter Sylvia from returning his love, but he is caught, and banished, when he tries to elope with her. Proteus's desire for Sylvia wipes out his former love, leading him into despicable acts that win scorn from Sylvia and wound Julia, who has pursued him disguised as a boy.Enter VALENTINE and PROTEUSVALENTINECease to persuade, my loving Proteus: Home-keeping youth have ever homely wits. Were't not affection chains thy tender days To the sweet glances of thy honour'd love, I rather would entreat thy company To see the wonders of the world abroad, Than, living dully sluggardized at home, Wear out thy youth with shapeless idleness. But since thou lovest, love still and thrive therein, Even as I would when I to love begin.PROTEUSWilt thou be gone? Sweet Valentine, adieu! Think on thy Proteus, when thou haply seest Some rare note-worthy object in thy travel: Wish me partaker in thy happiness When thou dost meet good hap; and in thy danger, If ever danger do environ thee, Commend thy grievance to my holy prayers, For I will be thy beadsman, Valentine.VALENTINEAnd on a love-book pray for my success?PROTEUSUpon some book I love I'll pray for thee.VALENTINEThat's on some shallow story of deep love: How young Leander cross'd the Hellespont.PROTEUSThat's a deep story of a deeper love: For he was more than over shoes in love.VALENTINE'Tis true; for you are over boots in love, And yet you never swum the Hellespont.PROTEUSOver the boots? nay, give me not the boots.VALENTINENo, I will not, for it boots thee not.PROTEUSWhat?VALENTINETo be in love, where scorn is bought with groans; Coy looks with heart-sore sighs; one fading moment's mirth With twenty watchful, weary, tedious nights: If haply won, perhaps a hapless gain; If lost, why then a grievous labour won; However, but a folly bought with wit, Or else a wit by folly vanquished.PROTEUSSo, by your circumstance, you call me fool.VALENTINESo, by your circumstance, I fear you'll prove.PROTEUS'Tis love you cavil at: I am not Love.VALENTINELove is your master, for he masters you: And he that is so yoked by a fool, Methinks, should not be chronicled for wise.PROTEUSYet writers say, as in the sweetest bud The eating canker dwells, so eating love Inhabits in the finest wits of all.VALENTINEAnd writers say, as the most forward bud Is eaten by the canker ere it blow, Even so by love the young and tender wit Is turn'd to folly, blasting in the bud, Losing his verdure even in the prime And all the fair effects of future hopes. But wherefore waste I time to counsel thee, That art a votary to fond desire? Once more adieu! my father at the road Expects my coming, there to see me shipp'd.
