608Tim. Nay, and you begin to raile on Societie once, I

609am sworne not to giue regard to you. Farewell, & come

610with better Musicke. Exit

611Aper. So: Thou wilt not heare mee now, thou shalt

612not then. Ile locke thy heauen from thee:

613Oh that mens eares should be

614To Counsell deafe, but not to Flatterie. Exit

616Sen. And late fiue thousand: to Varro and to Isidore

617He owes nine thousand, besides my former summe,

618Which makes it fiue and twenty. Still in motion

619Of raging waste? It cannot hold, it will not.

620If I want Gold, steale but a beggers Dogge,

621And giue it Timon, why the Dogge coines Gold.

622If I would sell my Horse, and buy twenty moe

623Better then he; why giue my Horse to Timon.

624Aske nothing, giue it him, it Foles me straight

625And able Horses: No Porter at his gate,

626But rather one that smiles, and still inuites

627All that passe by. It cannot hold, no reason

628Can sound his state in safety. Caphis hoa,

629Caphis I say.

631Ca. Heere sir, what is your pleasure.

632Sen. Get on your cloake, & hast you to Lord Timon,

633Importune him for my Moneyes, be not ceast

634With slight deniall; nor then silenc'd, when

635Commend me to your Master, and the Cap

636Playes in the right hand, thus: but tell him,

637My Vses cry to me; I must serue my turne

638Out of mine owne, his dayes and times are past,

639And my reliances on his fracted dates

640Haue smit my credit. I loue, and honour him,

641But must not breake my backe, to heale his finger.

642Immediate are my needs, and my releefe

643Must not be tost and turn'd to me in words,

644But finde supply immediate. Get you gone,

645Put on a most importunate aspect,

646A visage of demand: for I do feare

647When euery Feather stickes in his owne wing,

648Lord Timon will be left a naked gull,

649Which flashes now a Phoenix, get you gone.

650Ca. I go sir.

651Sen. I go sir?

652Take the Bonds along with you,

653And haue the dates in. Come.

654Ca. I will Sir.

655Sen. Go. Exeunt

657Stew. No care, no stop, so senselesse of expence,

658That he will neither know how to maintaine it,

659Nor cease his flow of Riot. Takes no accompt

660How things go from him, nor resume no care

661Of what is to continue: neuer minde,

662Was to be so vnwise, to be so kinde.

663What shall be done, he will not heare, till feele:

664I must be round with him, now he comes from hunting.

665Fye, fie, fie, fie.

667Cap. Good euen Varro: what, you come for money?

668Var. Is't not your businesse too?

669Cap. It is, and yours too, Isidore?

670Isid. It is so.

671Cap. Would we were all discharg'd.

672Var. I feare it,

673Cap. Heere comes the Lord.

675Tim. So soone as dinners done, wee'l forth againe

676My Alcibiades. With me, what is your will?

677Cap. My Lord, heere is a note of certaine dues.

678Tim. Dues? whence are you?

679Cap. Of Athens heere, my Lord.

680Tim. Go to my Steward.

681Cap. Please it your Lordship, he hath put me off

682To the succession of new dayes this moneth:

683My Master is awak'd by great Occasion,

684To call vpon his owne, and humbly prayes you,

685That with your other Noble parts, you'l suite,

686In giuing him his right.

687Tim. Mine honest Friend,

688I prythee but repaire to me next morning.

689Cap. Nay, good my Lord.

690Tim. Containe thy selfe, good Friend.

691Var. One Varroes seruant, my good Lord.

692Isid. From Isidore, he humbly prayes your speedy pay-

693ment.

694Cap. If you did know my Lord, my Masters wants.

695Var. 'Twas due on forfeyture my Lord, sixe weekes,

696and past.

697Isi. Your Steward puts me off my Lord, and I

698Am sent expressely to your Lordship.

699Tim. Giue me breath:

700I do beseech you good my Lords keepe on,

701Ile waite vpon you instantly. Come hither: pray you

702How goes the world, that I am thus encountred

703With clamorous demands of debt, broken Bonds,

704And the detention of long since due debts

705Against my Honor?

706Stew. Please you Gentlemen,

707The time is vnagreeable to this businesse:

708Your importunacie cease, till after dinner,

709That I may make his Lordship vnderstand

710Wherefore you are not paid.

711Tim. Do so my Friends, see them well entertain'd.

712Stew. Pray draw neere. Exit.

714Caph. Stay, stay, here comes the Foole with Apeman-

715tus, let's ha some sport with 'em.

716Var. Hang him, hee'l abuse vs.

717Isid. A plague vpon him dogge.

718Var. How dost Foole?

719Ape. Dost Dialogue with thy shadow?

720Var. I speake not to thee.

721Ape. No 'tis to thy selfe. Come away.

722Isi. There's the Foole hangs on your backe already.

723Ape. No thou stand'st single, th'art not on him yet.

724Cap. Where's the Foole now?

725Ape. He last ask'd the question. Poore Rogues, and

726Vsurers men, Bauds betweene Gold and want.

727Al. What are we Apemantus?

728Ape. Asses.

729All. Why?

730Ape, That you ask me what you are, & do not know

731your selues. Speake to 'em Foole.

732Foole. How do you Gentlemen?

733All. Gramercies good Foole:

734How does your Mistris?
