Clo. Marry, sir, they praise me and make an ass

of me. Now my foes tell me plainly I am an 20
ass; so that by my foes, sir, I profit in the
knowledge of myself, and by my friends I am
abused; so that, conclusions to be as kisses,
if your four negatives make your two affirm-
atives, why then, the worse for my friends 25
and the better for my foes.

Duke. Why, this is excellent.

Clo. By my troth, sir, no; though it please you
to be one of my friends.

Duke. Thou shalt not be the worse for me. 30
There's gold.

Clo. But that it would be double-dealing, sir, I
would you could make it another.

Duke. O, you give me ill counsel.

Clo. Put your grace in your pocket, sir, for this 35
once, and let your flesh and blood obey it.

Duke. Well, I will be so much a sinner, to be a
double-dealer. There's another.

Clo. Primo, secundo, tertio, is a good play; and

the old saying is, the third pays for all. The 40
triplex, sir, is a good tripping measure; or
the bells of Saint Bennet, sir, may put you
in mind; one, two, three.

Duke. You can fool no more money out of me at

this throw. If you will let your lady know I 45
am here to speak with her, and bring her
along with you, it may awake my bounty
further.
