What then became of them I cannot tell
I to this fortune that you see me in.
DUKE SOLINUS Why, here begins his morning story right;
These two Antipholuses, these two so like,
And these two Dromios, one in semblance,--
Besides her urging of her wreck at sea,--
These are the parents to these children,
Which accidentally are met together.
Antipholus, thou camest from Corinth first?
ANTIPHOLUS
OF SYRACUSE No, sir, not I; I came from Syracuse.
DUKE SOLINUS Stay, stand apart; I know not which is which.
ANTIPHOLUS
OF EPHESUS I came from Corinth, my most gracious lord,--
DROMIO OF EPHESUS And I with him.
ANTIPHOLUS
OF EPHESUS Brought to this town by that most famous warrior,
Duke Menaphon, your most renowned uncle.
ADRIANA Which of you two did dine with me to-day?
ANTIPHOLUS
OF SYRACUSE I, gentle mistress.
ADRIANA And are not you my husband?
ANTIPHOLUS
OF EPHESUS No; I say nay to that.
ANTIPHOLUS
OF SYRACUSE And so do I; yet did she call me so:
And this fair gentlewoman, her sister here,
Did call me brother.
[To Luciana]
What I told you then,
I hope I shall have leisure to make good;
If this be not a dream I see and hear.
ANGELO That is the chain, sir, which you had of me.
ANTIPHOLUS
OF SYRACUSE I think it be, sir; I deny it not.
