Dem. Aye, but my brother has dissuaded me

From going any further in this business.

“For how will people talk of it?” says he:

“At first you might have done it handsomely;

But then you’d not consent to it; and now,

After cohabitation with your son,

To think of a divorce is infamous.”

—In short, he urg’d almost the very things

That you so lately charg’d me with yourself.

Phor. You trifle with me, gentlemen.
