Gra. Beg that thou mayst have leave to hang thyself:

360 And yet, thy wealth being forfeit to the state,

Thou hast not left the value of a cord;

Therefore thou must be hang’d at the state’s charge.

[363] Duke. That thou shalt see the difference of our spirits,

I pardon thee thy life before thou ask it:

365 For half thy wealth, it is Antonio’s;

The other half comes to the general state,

Which humbleness may drive unto a fine.

Por. Ay, for the state, not for Antonio.
