Where is the horse that doth untread again 10 His tedious measures with the unbated fire That he did pace them first? All things that are, Are with more spirit chased than enjoy’d. How like a younker or a prodigal The scarfed bark puts from her native bay, 15 Hugg’d and embraced by the strumpet wind! How like the prodigal doth she return, With over-weather’d ribs and ragged sails, Lean, rent, and beggar’d by the strumpet wind! _Salar._ Here comes Lorenzo: more of this hereafter. 20 _Enter_ LORENZO. _Lor._ Sweet friends, your patience for my long abode; Not I, but my affairs, have made you wait: When you shall please to play the thieves for wives, I’ll watch as long for you then. Approach; Here dwells my father Jew. Ho! who’s within? 25 _Enter_ JESSICA, _above, in boy’s clothes_. _Jes._ Who are you? Tell me, for more certainty, Albeit I’ll swear that I do know your tongue. _Lor._ Lorenzo, and thy love. _Jes._ Lorenzo, certain; and my love, indeed, For who love I so much? And now who knows 30 But you, Lorenzo, whether I am yours? _Lor._ Heaven and thy thoughts are witness that thou art.
