QUOTES FROM THE BARD

PLAY: The Comedy of Errors ACT/SCENE: 5.1 SPEAKER: Dromio CONTEXT: DROMIO OF EPHESUS
Methinks you are my glass, and not my brother:
I see by you I am a sweet-faced youth.
Will you walk in to see their gossiping?
DROMIO OF SYRACUSE
Not I, sir. You are my elder.
DROMIO OF EPHESUS
That’s a question. How shall we try it?
DROMIO OF SYRACUSE
We’ll draw cuts for the signior. Till then, lead thou
first.
DROMIO OF EPHESUS
Nay, then, thus:
We came into the world like brother and brother,
And now let’s go hand in hand, not one before another. DUTCH: Neen, dan zij ‘t zoo:
Wij sprongen samen de wereld in, als broeders, met elkander;
Zoo gaan wij nu samen hand aan hand, en de een niet na den ander
