Hate all, curse all, show charity to none,
               But let the famish’d flesh slide from the bone
               Ere thou relieve the beggar; give to dogs [530]
               What thou deniest to men; let prisons swallow’em,

               Debts wither ’em to nothing; be men like blasted woods;
               And may diseases lick up their false bloods!
               And so farewell, and thrive.



              STEWARD
               O let me stay and comfort you, my master. [535]



              TIMON
               If thou hat’st curses

               Stay not; fly, whilst thou art bless’d and free:
               Ne’er see thou man, and let me ne’er see thee.
                                                     [Exit Steward; Timon withdraws into his cave]
