ANGELO

Here is neither cheer sir, nor welcome, we would feign have either. I'll meet you at that place some hour hence. M r Antipholus. I know it well sir, lo here's the chain, I thought to have taken you at the Porpentine, The chain unfinished made me stay thus long. What please your self sir: I have made it for you. Not once, nor twice, but twenty times you have: Go home with it, and please your Wife withal, And soon at supper time I'll visit you, And then receive my money for the chain. You are a merry man sir, fare you well. Even joust the sum that I do owe to you, Is growing to me by Antipholus, And in the instant that I met with you, He had of me a Chain, at five a clock I shall receive the money for the same: Pleases you walk with me down to his house, I will discharge my bound, and thank you too. Saving your merry humour: here's the note How much your Chain weighs to the utmost charect, The fineness of the Gold, and chargeful fashion, Which does amount to three odd Ducats more Then I stand debted to this Gentleman, I pray you see him presently discharged, For he is bound to Sea, and stays but for it. Then you will bring the Chain to her your self. Well sir, I will? Have you the Chain about you? Nay come I pray you sir, give me the Chain: Both wind and tide stays for this Gentleman, And I too blame have held him here too long. You hear how he importunes me, the Chain. Come, come, you know I gave it you even now. Either send the Chain, or send me by some token. The money that you owe me for the Chain. You know I gave it you half and hour since. You wrong me more sir in denying it. Consider how it stands upon my credit. This touches me in reputation. Either consent to pay this sum for me, Or I attach you by this Officer. Here is thy fee, arrest him Officer. I would not spare my brother in this case, If he should scorn me so apparently. Sir, sir, I shall have Law in Ephesus, To your notorious shame, I doubt it not. I am sorry Sir that I have hindered you, But I protest he had the Chain of me, Though most dishonestly he does deny it. Of very reverent reputation sir, Of credit infinite, highly beloved, Second to none that lives here in the City: His word might bear my wealth at any to me. It's so: and that self chain about his neck, Which he forswore most monstrously to have. Good sir draw near to me, I'll speak to him: Signior Antipholus, I wonder much That you would put me to this shame and trouble, And not without some scandal to your self, With circumstance and oaths, so to deny This Chain, which now you wear so openly. Beside the charge, the shame, imprisonment, You have done wrong to this my honest friend, Who but for staying on our Controversy, Had hoist sail, and put to sea to day: This Chain you had of me, can you deny it? I knew he was not in his perfect wits. Upon what cause? See where they come, we will behold his death. Oh perjured woman! They are both forsworn, In this the Madman justly charges them. My Lord, in truth, thus far I witness with him: That he dined not at home, but was locked out. He had my Lord, and when he ran in here, These people saw the Chain about his neck. I think I did sir, I deny it not. That is the Chain sir, which you had of me.
