[HYP. He hath learned logeres.[32]]
Such things as to get the end are referred, And by this reason to you I prove shall, That I before Hypocrisy must be preferred: The conclusion of my reason is this[33] inferred; Sith Hypocrisy was invented to augment private gain, I am the end of Hypocrisy: this is plain. HYPOCRISY. _Actum est de amicitia_, the bargain is despatched, And we two in friendship are united as one. AVARICE. In the same knot with you let me also be matched, And of money, I warrant you, you shall want none. HYPOCRISY. I agree; what say you? shall he be one? TYRANNY. I judge him needful in our company to be, And therefore, for my part, he is welcome to me. [HYP. Friendship for gain.] Let us now speedily on our business attend, And labour each one to bring it about. HYPOCRISY. |
