SCENE II. Before the walls of Athens.
Enter two Senators and a Messenger
FIRST SENATOR
Thou hast painfully discover'd: are his files
As full as thy report?
MESSENGER
have spoke the least:
Besides, his expedition promises
Present approach.
SECOND SENATOR
We stand much hazard, if they bring not Timon.
MESSENGER
I met a courier, one mine ancient friend;
Whom, though in general part we were opposed,
Yet our old love made a particular force,
And made us speak like friends: this man was riding
From Alcibiades to Timon's cave,
With letters of entreaty, which imported
His fellowship i' the cause against your city,
In part for his sake moved.
