Enter SEBASTIAN and ANTONIO
SEBASTIAN.I would not by my will have troubled you; But since you make your pleasure of your pains, I will no further chide you.ANTONIO.I could not stay behind you: my desire, More sharp than filed steel, did spur me forth; And not all love to see you- though so much As might have drawn one to a longer voyage- But jealousy what might befall your travel, Being skilless in these parts; which to a stranger, Unguided and unfriended, often prove Rough and unhospitable.My willing love, The rather by these arguments of fear, Set forth in your pursuit.SEBASTIAN.My kind Antonio, I can no other answer make but thanks, And thanks, and ever thanks; and oft good turns Are shuffl'd off with such uncurrent pay; But were my worth as is my conscience firm, You should find better dealing.What's to do? Shall we go see the reliques of this town? ANTONIO.To-morrow, sir; best first go see your lodging.SEBASTIAN.I am not weary, and 'tis long to night; I pray you, let us satisfy our eyes With the memorials and the things of fame That do renown this city.ANTONIO.Would you'd pardon me.I do not without danger walk these streets: Once in a sea-fight 'gainst the Count his galleys I did some service; of such note, indeed, That, were I ta'en here, it would scarce be answer'd.SEBASTIAN.Belike you slew great number of his people.ANTONIO.Th' offence is not of such a bloody nature; Albeit the quality of the time and quarrel Might well have given us bloody argument.It might have since been answer'd in repaying What we took from them; which, for traffic's sake, Most of our city did.Only myself stood out; For which, if I be lapsed in this place, I shall pay dear.SEBASTIAN.Do not then walk too open.ANTONIO.It doth not fit me.Hold, sir, here's my purse; In the south suburbs, at the Elephant, Is best to lodge.I will bespeak our diet, Whiles you beguile the time and feed your knowledge With viewing of the town; there shall you have me.SEBASTIAN.Why I your purse? ANTONIO.Haply your eye shall light upon some toy You have desire to purchase; and your store, I think, is not for idle markets, sir.SEBASTIAN.I'll be your purse-bearer, and leave you for An hour.ANTONIO.To th' Elephant.SEBASTIAN.Ido remember.Exeunt
