_Ant. E._ And you, sir, for this chain arrested me.
_Ang._ I think I did, sir; I deny it not.
_Adr._ I sent you money, sir, to be your bail, 380 By Dromio; but I think he brought it not.
_Dro. E._ No, none by me.
_Ant. S._ This purse of ducats I received from you, And Dromio my man did bring them me.
I see we still did meet each other"s man; 385 And I was ta"en for him, and he for me; And thereupon these ERRORS are arose.
_Ant. E._ These ducats p.a.w.n I for my father here.
_Duke._ It shall not need; thy father hath his life.
_Cour._ Sir, I must have that diamond from you. 390
_Ant. E._ There, take it; and much thanks for my good cheer.
_Abb._ Renowned Duke, vouchsafe to take the pains To go with us into the abbey here, And hear at large discoursed all our fortunes;-- And all that are a.s.sembled in this place, 395 That by this sympathized one day"s error Have suffer"d wrong, go keep us company, And we shall make full satisfaction.-- Thirty-three years have I but gone in travail Of you, my sons; and till this present hour 400 My heavy burthen ne"er delivered.
The Duke, my husband, and my children both, And you the calendars of their nativity, Go to a gossips" feast, and go with me; After so long grief, such nativity! 405
_Duke._ With all my heart, I"ll gossip at this feast.
[_Exeunt all but Ant. S., Ant. E., Dro. S., and Dro. E._
_Dro. S._ Master, shall I fetch your stuff from ship-board?
_Ant. E._ Dromio, what stuff of mine hast thou embark"d?
_Dro. S._ Your goods that lay at host, sir, in the Centaur.
_Ant. S._ He speaks to me. --I am your master, Dromio: 410 Come, go with us; we"ll look to that anon: Embrace thy brother there; rejoice with him.
[_Exeunt Ant. S. and Ant. E._
_Dro. S._ There is a fat friend at your master"s house, That kitchen"d me for you to-day at dinner: She now shall be my sister, not my wife. 415
_Dro. E._ Methinks you are my gla.s.s, and not my brother: I see by you I am a sweet-faced youth.
Will you walk in to see their gossiping?
_Dro. S._ Not I, sir; you are my elder.
_Dro. E._ That"s a question: how shall we try it? 420
_Dro. S._ We"ll draw cuts for the senior: till then lead thou first.
_Dro. E._ Nay, then, thus:-- We came into the world like brother and brother; And now let"s go hand in hand, not one before another.
[_Exeunt._
