_Ant._ To-morrow, sir: best first go see your lodging. 20
_Seb._ I am not weary, and 'tis long to night: I pray you, let us satisfy our eyes With the memorials and the things of fame That do renown this city.
_Ant._ Would you'ld pardon me; I do not without danger walk these streets: 25 Once, in a sea-fight, 'gainst the count his galleys I did some service; of such note indeed, That were I ta'en here it would scarce be answer'd.
_Seb._ Belike you slew great number of his people.
_Ant._ The offence is not of such a bloody nature; 30 Albeit the quality of the time and quarrel Might well have given us bloody argument. It might have since been answer'd in repaying What we took from them; which, for traffic's sake, Most of our city did: only myself stood out; 35 For which, if I be lapsed in this place, I shall pay dear.
_Ant._ It doth not fit me. Hold, sir, here's my purse. In the south suburbs, at the Elephant, Is best to lodge: I will bespeak our diet, 40 Whiles you beguile the time and feed your knowledge With viewing of the town: there shall you have me.
_Ant._ Haply your eye shall light upon some toy You have desire to purchase; and your store, 45 I think, is not for idle markets, sir.
_Seb._ I'll be your purse-bearer and leave you For an hour.
