CLOTEN

How long is’t since she went to Milford-Haven?

PISANIO
She can scarce be there yet.

CLOTEN
Bring this apparel to my chamber, that is the second thing that I have
commanded thee. The third is, that thou wilt be [150] a voluntary mute to

my design. Be but duteous, and true preferment shall tender itself to thee.
My revenge is now at Milford: would I had wings to follow it! Come, and be
true.
[Exit.]

PISANIO
Thou bid’st me to my loss: for true to thee [155]

Were to prove false, which I will never be,
To him that is most true. To Milford go,
And find not her whom thou pursuest. Flow, flow,
You heavenly blessings, on her! This fool’s speed

Be cross’d with slowness; labour be his meed! [160]
[Exit.]

Scene VI IT

Enter Imogen, in boy’s clothes.

IMOGEN
I see a man’s life is a tedious one,

I have tir’d myself: and for two nights together
Have made the ground my bed. I should be sick,
But that my resolution helps me: Milford,

When from the mountain-top Pisanio show’d thee, [5]
Thou was within a ken. O Jove! I think
Foundations fly the wretched: such, I mean,
Where they should be reliev’d. Two beggars told me
I could not miss my way. Will poor folks lie,
