Master Antipholus,—
Ay, that’s my name.

What is your will that I shall do with this?
What please yourself, sir: I have made it for you.

I answer you! What should I answer you?
The money that you owe me for the chain.

You know I gave it you half an hour since.
You gave me none: you wrong me much to say so.
You wrong me more, sir, in denying it:

Well, officer, arrest him at my suit.

Quotes
You have done wrong to this my honest friend;
Who, but for staying on our controversy,
Had hoisted sail and put to sea to-day:
This chain you had of me; can you deny it?
I think I had; I never did deny it.
Yes, that you did, sir, and forswore it too.
Who heard me to deny it or forswear it?
These ears of mine, thou know’st, did hear thee.
