¶Thaisa It is my lord's. That I was shipped at sea
I well remem

But whether there delive

¶Pericles,
My wedded lord, I ne'er shall see again,

And never more have joy.

¶Diana's temple is not distant far,
1365Where you may abide till your date expire.
¶Moreover, if you please, a niece of mine

¶Yet my good will is great, though the gift small.
Exeunt.
