P. 1715
Say, how grows it due? [130]
JAILER
Due for a chain your husband had of him.
ADRIANA
He did bespeak a chain for me, but had it not.
COURT ESAN
When as your husband all in rage today
Came to my house and took away my ring,
The ring I saw upon his finger now, [135]
Straight after did I meet him with a chain.
ADRIANA
It may be so, but I did never see it.
Come, jailer, bring me where the goldsmith is.
I long to know the truth hereof at large.
Enter Antipholus [of Syracuse] and Dromio [of Syracuse], with their
rapiers drawn.
LUCIANA
God, for thy mercy, they are loose again! [140]
ADRIANA
And come with naked swords. Let’s call more help
To have them bound again.
JAILER
Away, they’ll kill us!
Exeunt omnes [apart from Antipholus S. and Dromio S.], as fast as may
be, frighted.
ANTIPHOLUS S.
I see these witches are afraid of swords.
DROMIO S.
She that would be your wife now ran from you.
