not wept this thirty years, and upward; But now, if I should be hang'd I cannot hold from't It grieves me to the heart. _Dem_. Who's that that mocks me? _Leo_. A plague of him that mocks ye: I grieve truly, Truly, and heartily to see you thus, Sir: And if it lay in my power, gods are my witness, Who e'r he be that took your sweet peace from you; I am not so old yet, nor want I spirit-- _Dem_.No more of that, no more _Leontius_, Revenges are the gods: our part is sufferance: Farewell, I shall not see thee long. _Leo_. Good Sir, tell me the cause, I know there is a woman in't; Do you hold me faithful? dare you trust your Souldier? Sweet Prince, the cause? _Dem_. I must not, dare not tell it, And as thou art an honest man, enquire not. _Leo_. Will ye be merry then? _Dem_. I am wondrous merry. _Leo_. 'Tis wondrous well: you think now this becomes ye.

I will. _Dem_. Come near me no more then. _Leo_. How? _Dem_. Come no more near me: Thou art a plague-sore to me. [_Exit._ _Leo_.
