Why, here begins his morning story right:

These two Antipholus’, these two so like,

And these two Dromios, one in semblance—

Besides her urging of her wrack at sea—

These are the parents to these children,

Which accidentally are met together.

Antipholus, thou cam’st from Corinth first?

S. Ant.

No, sir, not I, I came from Syracuse.

Duke.

Stay, stand apart, I know not which is which.

E. Ant.

I came from Corinth, my most gracious lord—

E. Dro.

And I with him.

E. Ant.

Brought to this town by that most famous warrior,

Duke Menaphon, your most renowned uncle.

Adr.

Which of you two did dine with me to-day?

S. Ant.

I, gentle mistress.

Adr.

E. Ant.

S. Ant.

And this fair gentlewoman, her sister here,

Did call me brother.

That is the chain, sir, which you had of me.
