Bassanio (cont.)
And hath preferr’d thee, if it be preferment
To leave a rich Jew’s service, to become
The follower of so poor a gentleman.
Launcelot
The old proverb is very well parted between my master Shylock and you, sir: you have the grace of God, sir, and he hath enough.
Bassanio
Take leave of thy old master and inquire
My lodging out. Give him a livery
More guarded than his fellows’: see it done.
