CAMILLO. Shall satisfy your father. PERDITA. Happy be you! All that you speak shows fair. CAMILLO. [Seeing AUTOLYCUS.] Who have we here? We'll make an instrument of this; omit Nothing may give us aid. AUTOLYCUS. [Aside.] If they have overheard me now,--why, hanging. CAMILLO. How now, good fellow! why shakest thou so? Fear not, man; here's no harm intended to thee. AUTOLYCUS. I am a poor fellow, sir. CAMILLO. Why, be so still; here's nobody will steal that from thee: yet, for the outside of thy poverty we must make an exchange; therefore discase thee instantly,--thou must think there's a necessity in't,--and change garments with this gentleman: though the pennyworth on his side be the worst, yet hold thee, there's some boot. [Giving money.] AUTOLYCUS. I am a poor fellow, sir:--[Aside.] I know ye well enough. CAMILLO. Nay, pr'ythee dispatch: the gentleman is half flay'd already. AUTOLYCUS. Are you in earnest, sir?--[Aside.] I smell the trick on't. FLORIZEL. Dispatch, I pr'ythee. AUTOLYCUS. Indeed, I have had earnest; but I cannot with conscience take it. CAMILLO. Unbuckle, unbuckle. [FLORIZEL and AUTOLYCUS exchange garments.] Fortunate mistress,--let my prophecy Come home to you!--you must retire yourself Into some covert; take your sweetheart's hat And pluck it o'er your brows, muffle your face, Dismantle you; and, as you can, disliken The truth of your own seeming; that you may,-- For I do fear eyes over,--to shipboard Get undescried. PERDITA. I see the play so lies That I must bear a part. CAMILLO. No remedy.-- Have you done there? FLORIZEL. Should I now meet my father, He would not call me son. CAMILLO. Nay, you shall have no hat.--[Giving it to PERDITA.] Come, lady, come.--Farewell, my friend. AUTOLYCUS. Adieu, sir. FLORIZEL. O Perdita, what have we twain forgot! Pray you a word. [They converse apart.] CAMILLO. [Aside.] What I do next, shall be to tell the king Of this escape, and whither they are bound; Wherein, my hope is, I shall so prevail To force him after: in whose company I shall re-view Sicilia; for whose sight I have a woman's longing. FLORIZEL. Fortune speed us!-- Thus we set on, Camillo, to the sea-side. CAMILLO. The swifter speed the better. [Exeunt FLORIZEL, PERDI
