Paul. Do not you feare: vpon mine honor, I
Will stand betwixt you, and danger.

Exeunt.

Scaena Tertia.

Enter Leontes, Seruants, Paulina, Antigonus, and Lords.

Leo. Nor night, nor day, no rest: It is but weaknesse
To beare the matter thus: meere weaknesse, if
The cause were not in being: part o'th cause,

Giuen to the fire, a moity of my rest
Might come to me againe. Whose there?
Ser. My Lord

Fasten'd, and fix'd the shame on't in himselfe:
