ACT I
SCENE 1 and 3/4, "The Slytherin Rancour".
In the Headmaster's office.
Professor Albus Dumbledore, Headmaster of Hogwarts, is sitting at his desk.
Enters Snape.
Dumbledore: Who set this ancient quarrel new abroach?
Speak, Severus, were you by when it began?
Snape: There were the students of my house - your adversary,
And your Gryffindors, close fighting when I did approach:
I drew to part them: in the instant came
The fiery Potter, with his wand prepared,
Which, as he breathed defiance to my ears,
He swung about his head and cut the winds,
Who nothing hurt withal hissed him in scorn:
While they were interchanging thrusts and blows,
Came more and more and fought on part and part,
Till I bellowed and parted either part.
Dumbledore [sarcastically]: O, and where was Draco? saw you him today?
Right sure I am he was not at this fray.
Snape [ruefully]: No, he has lost himself; he was not there;
This was not Draco, he's some other where.
Dumbledore: My dear Severus, do you know the cause?
Tell me in confidence, who is that him hurt.
Snape: What, shall I groan and tell thee?
Dumbledore: Groan! why, no.
But sadly tell me who.
Has been importuned he by any means?
Snape [groans]: Both by Potter and many other Gryffindors.
Dumbledore: Good god, for what?
Snape [duh]: Out of their favour, where he is in Slytherin.
Dumbledore: Yeah right, dark mark-man! Harry's fair and loving.
Snape: Oh yeah! an hour after the worshipped sun
Stopped glowing on the windows of the west,
A troubled mind drove me to walk abroad;
Where, underneath the grove of sycamore
Past curfew(!) walking did I see your brat:
Towards him I made, but he was ware of me
And stole into the covert of the Forbidden(!) wood:
I, measuring my affections towards him,
Pursued my humour not pursuing his,
And gladly shunned who gladly fled from me.
Why, such is rules transgression!
An if you leave it so, you do him wrong.
Dumbledore: Well, in that hit you miss: he'll not be hit,
Nor bide the encounter of assailing eyes.
All because, in strong proof of goodness well armed,
From Voldemort's mean curse he lived unharmed.
Snape: Farewell: you can not teach me to forget.
He'll pay with points, or else die in detention!
Snape leaves in fury, his black robes billowing behind him.
