Sevenfold above itself; no gift to him But breeds the giver a return exceeding All use of quittance. FIRST LORD. The noblest mind he carries That ever govern'd man. SECOND LORD. Long may he live in fortunes! Shall we in? FIRST LORD. I'll keep you company. [Exeunt.] Scene II.-- The Same. A room of state in TIMON'S House. [Hautboys playing loud music. A great banquet served in; FLAVIUS and Others attending: then enter LORD TIMON, ALCIBIADES, Lords, and Senators, VENTIDIUS and Attendants. Then comes, dropping after all, APEMANTUS, discontentedly, like himself.] VENTIDIUS. Most honour'd Timon, It hath pleas'd the gods to remember my father's age, And call him to long peace. |
