ACT III.
SCENE I. _Venice. A street._
_Enter_ SALANIO _and_ SALARINO.
_Salan._ Now, what news on the Rialto?
_Salar._ Why, yet it lives there unchecked, that Antonio
hath a ship of rich lading wrecked on the narrow seas; the
Goodwins, I think they call the place; a very dangerous flat
and fatal, where the carcases of many a tall ship lie buried, 5
as they say, if my gossip Report be an honest woman of
her word.
_Salan._ I would she were as lying a gossip in that as ever
knapped ginger, or made her neighbours believe she wept
for the death of a third husband. But it is true, without 10
any slips of prolixity, or crossing the plain highway of talk,
that the good Antonio, the honest Antonio,——O that I
had a title good enough to keep his name company!—
_Salar._ Come, the full stop.
_Salan._ Ha! what sayest thou? Why, the end is, he 15
hath lost a ship.
_Salar._ I would it might prove the end of his losses.
