Overview

Enter LEONATO, HERO, and BEATRICE, with a MessengerLEONATOI learn in this letter that Don Peter of Arragon comes this night to Messina.MessengerHe is very near by this: he was not three leagues off when I left him.LEONATOHow many gentlemen have you lost in this action?MessengerBut few of any sort, and none of name.LEONATOA victory is twice itself when the achiever brings home full numbers. I find here that Don Peter hath bestowed much honour on a young Florentine called Claudio.MessengerMuch deserved on his part and equally remembered by Don Pedro: he hath borne himself beyond the promise of his age, doing, in the figure of a lamb, the feats of a lion: he hath indeed better bettered expectation than you must expect of me to tell you how.LEONATOHe hath an uncle here in Messina will be very much glad of it.MessengerI have already delivered him letters, and there appears much joy in him; even so much that joy could not show itself modest enough without a badge of bitterness.LEONATODid he break out into tears?MessengerIn great measure.LEONATOA kind overflow of kindness: there are no faces truer than those that are so washed. How much better is it to weep at joy than to joy at weeping!BEATRICEI pray you, is Signior Mountanto returned from the wars or no?MessengerI know none of that name, lady: there was none such in the army of any sort.
