my lord seen yet? ˹LUCIUS’ MAN˺ (FTLN 1105) [16] Not yet. PHILOTUS (FTLN 1106) [17] I wonder on ’t. He was wont to shine at seven. ˹LUCIUS’ MAN˺ (FTLN 1107) [18] Ay, but the days are waxed shorter with him.

I fear (FTLN 1111) [22] ’Tis deepest winter in Lord Timon’s purse: (FTLN 1112) [23] That is, one may reach deep enough and yet (FTLN 1113) [24] Find little.
