Rossetti A Vision of Fiammetta painting
David Male Nude known as Patroclus painting
That is the voice,Or I am much deceived, of Portia.
PORTIA
He knows me as the blind man knows the cuckoo,By the bad voice.
LORENZO
Dear lady, welcome home.
PORTIA
We have been praying for our husbands' healths,Which speed, we hope, the better for our words.Are they return'd?
LORENZO
Madam, they are not yet;But there is come a messenger before,To signify their coming.
PORTIA
Go in, Nerissa;Give order to my servants that they takeNo note at all of our being absent hence;Nor you, Lorenzo; Jessica, nor you.
[A tucket sounds]
LORENZO
Your husband is at hand; I hear his trumpet:We are no tell-tales, madam; fear you not.
