Pleaseth you walk with me down to his house,
I will discharge my bond and thank you too.
Enter ANTIPHOLUS OF EPHESUS and DROMIO OF EPHESUS
from the courtesan's.
Officer. That labour may you save; see where he comes.
Antipholus of E. While I go to the goldsmith's house, go
thou
And buy a rope's end; that will I bestow
Among my wife and her confederates,
For locking me out of my doors by day.
But, soft! I see the goldsmith. Get thee gone;
Buy thou a rope and bring it home to me. 20
Dromio of E. I buy a thousand pound a year! I buy a
rope! [Exit.
Antipholus of E. A man is well holp up that trusts to you!
I promised your presence and the chain;
But neither chain nor goldsmith came to me.
Belike you thought our love would last too long,
If it were chain'd together, and therefore came not.
Angelo. Saving your merry humour, here 's the note
How much your chain weighs to the utmost carat,
The fineness of the gold, and chargeful fashion,
Which doth amount to three odd ducats more 30
Than I stand debted to this gentleman.
I pray you, see him presently discharg'd,
For he is bound to sea and stays but for it.
Antipholus of E. I am not furnish'd with the present
money;
Besides, I have some business in the town.
Good signior, take the stranger to my house,
And with you take the chain and bid my wife
Disburse the sum on the receipt thereof;
Perchance I will be there as soon as you.
Angelo. Then you will bring the chain to her yourself? 40
