[Exeunt Belarius and Arviragus.]
               Let me alone with him.



              CLOTEN
                               Soft, what are you [70]
               That fly me thus? Some villain mountaineers?
               I have heard of such. What slave art thou?




              GUIDERIUS
                               A thing
               More slavish did I ne’er than answering
               A slave without a knock.



              CLOTEN
                               Thou art a robber,

               A law-breaker, a villain: yield thee, thief. [75]


              GUIDERIUS

               To who? to thee? What art thou? Have not I
               An arm as big as thine? a heart as big?
               Thy words I grant are bigger: for I wear not
               My dagger in my mouth. Say what thou art:

               Why I should yield to thee.



              CLOTEN
                               Thou villain base, [80]
               Know’st me not by my clothes?



              GUIDERIUS
                               No, nor thy tailor, rascal,
               Who is thy grandfather: he made those clothes,

               Which (as it seems) make thee.



              CLOTEN
                               Thou precious varlet,
               My tailor made them not.
