but it is a melancholy 18 of mine own, compounded of many simples, ex- 19 tracted from many objects, and indeed the sundry 20 contemplation of my travels, in which <my> often 21 rumination wraps me in a most humorous sadness.
Don Gagnon
JAQUES I have neither the scholar’s melancholy, which 13 is emulation ; nor the musician’s, which is fantas-14 tical; nor the courtier’s, which is proud; nor the 15 soldier’s, which is ambitious; nor the lawyer’s, 16 which is politic ; nor the lady’s, which is nice ; nor 17 the lover’s, which is all these; but it is a melancholy 18 of mine own, compounded of many simples , ex-19 tracted from many objects, and indeed the sundry 20 contemplation of my travels, in which < my > often 21 rumination wraps me in a most humorous sadness. 22
