This castle hath a pleasant seat; the air
Nimbly and sweetly recommends itself
Unto our gentle senses.

Bind Dromio too, and bear them to my house.

Second Merchant

1697

Besides, I will be sworn these ears of mine
Heard you confess you had the chain of him
After you first forswore it on the mart:
And thereupon I drew my sword on you;
And then you fled into this abbey here,
From whence, I think, you are come by miracle.

I never came within these abbey-walls,
Nor ever didst thou draw thy sword on me:
I never saw the chain, so help me Heaven!
And this is false you burden me withal.
