Excerpt: ...ANGELO. I know it well, sir. Lo, here is the chain; I thought to have ta''en you at the Porcupine: The chain unfinish''d made me stay thus long. ANTIPHOLUS OF SYRACUSE. What is your will that I shall do with this? ANGELO. What please yourself, sir; I have made it for you. ANTIPHOLUS OF SYRACUSE. Made it for me, sir! I bespoke it not. ANGELO. 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. ANTIPHOLUS OF SYRACUSE.

Even just 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 o''clock I shall receive the money for the same: 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. OFFICER. That labour may you save: see where he comes. ANTIPHOLUS OF EPHESUS. 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...
