Be some excuse? Pray you remember, sir,

How on a sudden you yourself determined

To leave the cheerful city and come here,

Among dull woods and fields, and savage people;

And surely ’twas no wonder that my brother

Should, ill advised, no doubt, but naturally,

Slip for a month back to the busy world

To which his very dangers had endear’d him.

And now to prove

How much he feels your anger and his fault,
