ARVIRAGUS

                               Nobly he yokes
               A smiling with a sigh; as if the sigh
               Was that it was, for not being such a smile;

               The smile mocking the sigh, that it would fly
               From so divine a temple, to commix [55]
               With winds that sailors rail at.



              GUIDERIUS
                               I do note
               That grief and patience, rooted in them both,

               Mingle their spurs together.


              ARVIRAGUS

                               Grow, patience!
               And let the stinking-elder, grief, untwine
               His perishing root, with the increasing vine! [60]



              BELARIUS
               It is great morning. Come, away! − who’s there?


                                                       Enter Cloten.



              CLOTEN

               I cannot find those runagates, that villain
               Hath mock’d me. I am faint.



              BELARIUS
                               ‘Those runagates!’
               Means he not us? I partly know him, ’tis

               Cloten, the son o’ th’ queen. I fear some ambush: [65]
               I saw him not these many years, and yet
               I know ’tis he: we are held as outlaws: hence!



              GUIDERIUS
               He is but one: you, and my brother search
               What companies are near: pray you, away,

               Let me alone with him.
