Trin. Befits it me,
A gentleman of public reputation,
To stoop so low as satisfy the questions
Of base and earthly pieces like thyself?
What art thou? ha?
Ant. Th' unfortunate possessor of this house.
Trin. Thou liest, base sycophant, my worship owes[332] it.
Ant. May be, my son hath sold it in my absence,
Thinking me dead. How long has't call'd you master?
Trin. 'Long as Antonio possess'd it
Ant. Which Antonio?
Trin. Antonio Anastasio.
Ant. That Anastasio,
That was drown'd in Barbary?
Trin. That Anastasio,
That selfsame man, am I: I 'scap'd by swimming,
And now return to keep my former promise
Of Flavia to Pandolfo; and, in exchange,
To take Sulpitia to my wife.
