DIONYZA

                               I have one myself,
               Who shall not be more dear to my respect
               Than yours, my lord.



              PERICLES
                               Madam, my thanks and prayers.



              CLEON

               We’ll bring your grace e’en to the edge o’th’shore, [35]
               Then give you up to the masked Neptune, and
               The gentlest winds of heaven.



              PERICLES
                               I will embrace
               Your offer. Come, dearest madam. O, no tears,

               Lychorida, no tears.
               Look to your little mistress, on whose grace [40]
               You may depend hereafter. Come, my lord.
                                                                                                        Exeunt.




                                                    Scene IV          IT


                                              Enter Cerimon and Thaisa.



              CERIMON
               Madam, this letter, and some certain jewels,
               Lay with you in your coffer, which are
               At your command. Know you the character?




              THAISA
               It is my lord’s. That I was shipped at sea [5]
               I well remember, even on my eaning time.
               But whether there delivered, by the holy gods,
               I cannot rightly say. But since King Pericles,

               My wedded lord, I ne’er shall see again,
               A vestal livery will I take me to, [10]
