What, have ye found her out? _Char_. We have hearkned after her. _Ant_. What's that to my desire? _Char_. Your grace must give us time, And a little means. _Tim_. She is sure a stranger, If she were bred or known here-- _Ant_. Your dull endeavours _Enter_ Menippus. Should never be employ'd. Welcom _Menippus_. _Men_. I have found her Sir, I mean the place she is lodg'd in; her name is _Celia_, And much adoe I had to purchase that too. _Ant_. Dost think _Demetrius_ loves her? _Men_. Much I fear it, But nothing that way yet can win for certain. I'le tell your grace within this hour. _Ant_. A stranger? _Men_. Without all doubt. _Ant_. But how should he come to her? _Men_.
