Hip. What will become of 'em?
Thes. Thus I ordain it,
And by mine honor, once again it stands,
Or both shall dye. You shall both to your Countrey,
And each within this month accompanied
With three fair Knights, appear again in this place,
In which I'll plant a Pyramid; And whether
Before us that are here, can force his Cosen
By fair and knightly strength to touch the Pillar,
He shall enjoy her: The other loose his head,
And all his friends: Nor shall he grudge to fall,
Nor think he dies with interest in this Lady:
Will this content ye?
Pal. Yes: Here Cosen Arcite
I'm friends again, till that hour.
Arc. I embrace ye.
Thes. Are you content Sister?
Emil. Yes, I must Sir,
[Els] both miscarry.
Thes. Come shake hands again then,
And take heed, as you are Gentlemen, this Quarrell
Sleep till the hour p[re]fixt, and hold your course.
Pal. We dare not fail thee Theseus.
T[h]es. Come, I'll give ye
Now usage like to Princes, and to Friends:
When ye return, who wins, I'll settle here,
Who loses, yet I'll weep upon his Beer. [Exeunt.
