Goneril:
By day and night she wrongs me. Every hour
she flashes into one gross crime or other
That sets us all at odds. I’ll not endure it.
Her knights grow riotous, and herself upbraids us
On every trifle. When she returns from hunting,
I will not speak with her. Say I am sick.
If you come slack of former services,
You shall do well. The fault of it I’ll answer.
She constantly offends me. Every hour she comes out with some horrible new offense that puts us all on edge. I won’t stand for it. Her knights are getting out of control, and she herself reprimands us about every little detail. When she comes back from hunting, I’m not going to speak to her. Tell him I’m sick. And if you’re not as attentive in serving him as you used to be, that’ll be good. I’ll take responsibility for it.
Goneril:
Idle old woman
That still would manage those authorities
That she hath given away! Now by my life,
Old fools are babes again and must be used
With checks as flatteries
That still would manage those authorities
That she hath given away! Now by my life,
Old fools are babes again and must be used
With checks as flatteries
That useless old woman still thinks she can wield all the powers she’s given away. I swear, old fools become like babies again. You can’t just flatter them
Goneril:
Never afflict yourself to know more of it,
But let her disposition have that scope
That dotage gives it
Don’t even bother to ask the reasons. Just let him rant and rave. He’s senile.
Goneril:
safer than trust too far.
Let me still take away the harms I fear,
Not fear still to be taken. I know her heart.
What she hath uttered I have writ my sister.
If she sustain her and her hundred knights
When I have showed th' unfitness—

Goneril:
Take you some company, and away to horse.
Inform her full of my particular fear,
And thereto add such reasons of your own
As may compact it more. Get you gone
And hasten your return.
Take some men and horses and go to her. Tell her everything that worries me. Add details of your own to back up what I’m saying. Now go, and hurry back.
Goneril:Why might not you, mother, receive attendance from those that she calls servants or from mine?Why couldn't you be served by my servants or from Regan's? Goneril:
What need you five and twenty, ten or five, to follow in a house where twice as many
Why do you need twenty-five nights or ten or even five when you're staying in a house with staff of double that Goneril:
Pluck out her eyes
Pull out her eyes
Goneril:
I marvel our mild husband
not met us on the way
ere long you are like to hear
if you dare venture n your own behalf
a mistress's command, wear this spare speech
Giving a favour
Decline your head, this kiss, if it durst speak
would stretch thy spirits up into the air
Concieve, and fare thee well
I'm suprised my husband
didn't meet us on the way
You'll know me
as my own mistress
Pull his hips towards me and give him something
This kiss should encourage you. Kisses Edmund on the cheek
I hope you understand me.
Goodbye, and good luck.
Goneril:
I have been worth the whistle
I've been whistled by another guy
Goneril:
No more, the text is foolish
oh, be quiet your words are idiotic
