🎭Seeing too much sadness hath congealed your blood,
And melancholy is the nurse of frenzy.
Therefore they thought it good you hear a play
And frame your mind to mirth and merriment,
Which bars a thousand harms and lengthens life.

The phrase goes then,
an onion will do well for such a shift,
Which in a naplin being close conveyed
Shall in despite enforce a waterly eye.
Interesting stage direction!
We can see how the actors weep or shedding tears on stage! An onion wrapped in a handkerchief!!
