Por.

Speake not so grossely, you are all amaz'd;

Heere is a letter, reade it at your leysure,

It comes from Padua from Bellario,

There you shall finde that Portia was the

Doctor,

Nerrissa there her Clarke. Lorenzo heere

Shall witnesse I set forth as soone as you,

And but eu'n now return'd: I haue not yet

Entred my house. Anthonio you are welcome,

And I haue better newes in store for you

Then you expect: vnseale this letter soone,

There you shall finde three of your Argosies

Are richly come to harbour sodainlie.

You shall not know by what strange accident

I chanced on this letter.
