At sea in childbed died she, but brought forth THAISA 18 Voice and favour! You are, you are- -O royal Pericles!-- [She faints. PERICLES. What means the nun? she dies! help, gentlemen! CERIMON. Noble sir, 16 have told Diana's altar true, This is your wife. PERICLES. Reverend appearer, no; PERICLES. joy'd. 'Tis most certain. Look to the lady. O! she's but o'er Early in blustering morn this lady was Thrown upon this shore. I op'd the coffin, 21 Found there rich jewels; recover'd her, and plac'd her Here in Diana's temple. PERICLES. May we see them? 25 CERIMON. Great sir, they shall be brought you to my house, Whither I invite you. Look! Thaisa is Recovered. 4 THAISA O! let me look! If he be none of mine, my sanctity Will to my sense bend no licentious ear, PERICLES. The voice of dead Thaisa! THAISA. That Thaisa am I, supposed dead And drown'd. PERICLES. Immortal Dian ! THAISA. 28 32 36 Now I know you better. When we with tears parted Pentapolis, The king my father gave you such a ring. [Shows a ring. PERICLES.

And now 72 This ornament Makes me look dismal will I clip to form; And what this fourteen years no razor touch'd, 76 THAISA. Lord Cerimon hath letters of good credit, sir, My father's dead. PERICLES. Heavens make a star of him! Yet there, my queen, We'll celebrate their nuptials, and ourselves 80 To hear the rest untold. Sir, lead's the way. [Exeunt. Enter GOWER. In Antiochus and his daughter you have heard A figure of truth, of faith, of loyalty. 85 88 92 In reverend Cerimon there well appears The worth that learned charity aye wears. For wicked Cleon and his wife, when fame Had spread their cursed deed, and honour'd name 97 That him and his they in his palace burn': The gods for murder seemed so content To punish them; although not done, but meant.
