[266] The paper as the body of my friend,

And every word in it a gaping wound,

Issuing life-blood. But is it true, Salerio?

[269] Have all his ventures fail’d? What, not one hit?

[270] From Tripolis, from Mexico, and England,

From Lisbon, Barbary, and India?

[272] And not one vessel scape the dreadful touch

Of merchant-marring rocks?

Saler.

Not one, my lord.
