    The adaptation that best mantains the original meaning and tone of the excerpt is "I promise not to tell anyone".

    In the original, Ophelia says "'Tis in my memory lock'd, And you yourself shall keep the key of it", which means that she will never forget what Laertes has told her (locked in her memory), and that she will discuss it with no other than him (he holds the "key" to "unlock" it.)
