[Exeunt some Attendants]
You must needs dine with me. Go not you hence
Till I have thank’d you. When dinner’s done

Show me this piece. I am joyful of your sights. [250]
Enter Alcibiades, and Attendants.
Most welcome, sir!

Aches contract and starve your supple joints!
That there should be small love amongst these sweet knaves,
And all this courtesy! The strain of man’s bred out
Into baboon and monkey. [255]

Sir, you have sav’d my longing, and I feed

Most hungerly on your sight.

TIMON
Right welcome, sir.
Ere we depart, we’ll share a bounteous time
In different pleasures. Pray you, let us in.

FIRST LORD
