ro. E._ And, gentle master, I received no gold; 95 But I confess, sir, that we were lock'd out. _Adr._ Dissembling villain, them speak'st false in both. _Ant. E._ Dissembling harlot, them art false in all, And art confederate with a damned pack To make a loathsome abject scorn of me: 100 But with these nails I'll pluck out these false eyes, That would behold in me this shameful sport. _Enter three or four, and offer to bind him.
