Clin. Indeed, I can’t consent: and who is Philolaches,

That you shd wish to tell him all my private affairs?

Pam. Ah, he can smell a rat; but don’t be afraid of him;

He’s my sworn friend: & sure no less to keep a secret,

Than he is to find out anything in the mortal world

That you seek to withhold.

Clin.I pray, say nothing to him of me.

Pam. Trust us; we won’t betray you.

(Runs back to meet Phil.)
