Arrived: I were safe, if once I might meet them happily.

Let them bark that lust at this kind of gain,

He is a fool that for his profit will not pain:

Though it be joined with other men’s hurt, I care not at all

For profit I will accuse any man, hap what shall.

But soft, sirs, I pray you hush: what are they that comes here?

By their apparel and countenance some strangers they appear.

I will shroud myself secretly, even here for a while,

To hear all their talk, that I may them beguile.

Here entereth Damon and Stephano.
