TRIN. Farewell, good servant; ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! I know not so much as his name! Ten pound! This change is better than my birth; for, in all the years of my yeomanry, I could never yoke two crowns, and now I have herded ten fair twenty-shilling pieces. Now will I go to this astrologer, and hire him to turn my cart to a caroch, my four jades to two pair of Dutch mares, my Mistress Armellina to a lady, my ploughboy Dick to two garded footmen[321]. Then will I hurry myself to the mercer's books, wear rich clothes, be called Tony by a great man, sell my lands, pay no debts, hate citizens, and beat Serjeants: and when all fails, sneak out of Antonio with a twopenny looking-glass, and turn as true Trincalo as ever. SCENE VI. HARPAX, TRINCALO. HAR. Signior Antonio, welcome. TRIN. My life, here's ten pound more, I thank you heartily. HAR. Never in fitter season could I find you. If you remember, sir, before you went To Barbary, I lent you ten pound in gold. TRIN. Faith, I remember no such thing, excuse me. What may I call your name? HAR. My name is Harpax, Your friend and neighbour, of your old acquaintance. TRIN. What, Harpax! I am your servant; I kiss your hands. You must excuse me; you never lent me money. HAR. Sir, as I live, ten twenty-shilling pieces. TRIN. Dangers at sea, I find, have hurt my memory. HAR. Why, here's your own handwriting, seal'd and sign'd In presence of your cousin Julio. TRIN. 'Tis true, 'tis true; but I sustain'd great losses By reason of the shipwreck. Here's five pieces; Will that content you? and to-morrow morning Come to my house and take the rest. HAR. Well, sir, Though my necessity would importune you For all, yet, on your worship's word, the rest I'll call for in the morning. Farewell, Antonio. [_Exit._ TRIN. I see we gentlemen can sometimes borrow As well as lend; and are as loth to pay As meaner men. I'll home, lest other creditors Call for the rest. SCENE VII. RONCA, TRINCALO. RON. Signior Antonio! I saw you as you landed, And in great haste follow'd, to congratulate Your safe return with these most wish'd embraces. TRIN. And I accept your joy with like affection. How do you call yourself? RON. Have you forgot Your dear friend Ronca, whom you lov'd so well? TRIN. O, I remember now, my dear friend Ronca. RON. Thanks to the fortune of the seas, that sav'd you. TRIN. I fear I owe him money. How shall I shift him? [_Aside._] How does your body, Ronca? RON. My dear Antonio, Never so well as now I have the power Thus to embrace my friend, whom all th' Exchange Gave drown'd for three whole months. My dear Antonio! TRIN. I thank you, sir. RON. I thank you.
