Mark how he trembles in his ecstasy!

PINCH

Give me your hand and let me feel your pulse.

OF EPHESUS

There is my hand, and let it feel your ear.

PINCH

I charge thee, Satan, housed within this man,
To yield possession to my holy prayers
And to thy state of darkness hie thee straight:
I conjure thee by all the saints in heaven!

OF EPHESUS

Peace, doting wizard, peace! I am not mad.

ADRIANA

O, that thou wert not, poor distressed soul!

OF EPHESUS

You minion, you, are these your customers?
Did this companion with the saffron face
Revel and feast it at my house to-day,
Whilst upon me the guilty doors were shut
And I denied to enter in my house?

ADRIANA

O husband, God doth know you dined at home;
Where would you had remain'd until this time,
Free from these slanders and this open shame!

OF EPHESUS

Dined at home! Thou villain, what sayest thou?

DROMIO OF EPHESUS

Sir, sooth to say, you did not dine at home.

OF EPHESUS

Were not my doors lock'd up and I shut out?

DROMIO OF EPHESUS

Perdie, your doors were lock'd and you shut out.

OF EPHESUS

And did not she herself revile me there?
