| | Antipholus of E. No; bear it with you, lest I come not | |
| | time enough. | | |
| | Angelo. Well, sir, , I will. Have you the chain about you? | |
| | Antipholus of E. An if I have not, sir, I hope you have; | |
| Or else you may return without your money. | |
| | Angelo. Nay, come, I pray you, sir, give me the chain; | |
| Both wind and tide stays for this gentleman, | |
| And I, to blame, have held him here too long. | |
| | Antipholus of E. Good Lord! you use this dalliance to ex- | |
| | cuse | | |
| Your breach of promise to the Porpentine. | |
| I should have chid you for not bringing it, | 50 |
| But, like a shrew, you first begin to brawl. | |
| | 2 Merchant. The hour steals on; I pray you, sir, dispatch. | |
| | Angelo. You bear how he importunes me; -- the chain! | |
| | Antipholus of E. Why, give it to my wife, and fetch your | |
| | money. | | |
| | Angelo. Come, come, you know I gave it you even now. | |
| Either send the chain or send me by some token. | |
| | Antipholus of E. Fie, now you run this humour out of | |
| | breath. | | |
| Come, where's the chain? I pray you, let me see it. | |
| | 2 Merchant. My business cannot brook this dalliance. | |
| Good sir, say whether you 'll answer me or no; | | 60 |
| If not, I 'll leave him to the officer. | |
| | Antipholus of E. I answer you! what should I answer | |
| | you? | | |
| | Angelo. The money that you owe me for the chain. | |
| | Antipholus of E. I owe you none till I receive the chain. | |
| | Angelo. You know I gave it you half an hour since. | |
| | Antipholus of E. You gave me none; you wrong me much | |
| | to say so. | |
| | Angelo. You wrong me more, sir, in denying it; | |
| Consider how it stands upon my credit. | |
| | 2 Merchant. Well, officer, arrest him at my suit. | |
