[070] D. John. My lord and brother, God save you!

D. Pedro. Good den, brother.

D. John. If your leisure served, I would speak with you.

D. Pedro. In private?

D. John. If it please you: yet Count Claudio may 075 hear; for what I would speak of concerns him.

[076] D. Pedro. What’s the matter?

D. John. [To Claudio] Means your lordship to be married to-morrow?
