Philiades

You shameless creatures! yes, yes, mow you know Timons merits! now Gnathonides would be his friend and boon-companion! well, he has the right reward of ingratitude.

v.1.p.49
Some of us were his familiars and playmates and neighbours; but we hold back a little; we would not seem to thrust ourselves upon him. Greeting, lord Timon; pray let me -varn you against these abominable flatterers; they are your humble servants during meal-times, and else about as useful as carrion crows. Perfidy is the order of the day; everywhere ingratitude and vileness. I was just bringing a couple of hundred pounds, for your immediate necessities, and was nearly here before I heard of your splendid fortune. So I just came on to give you this word of caution; though indeed you are wise enough (I would take your advice before Nestors myself) to need none of my counsel.

Timon

Quite so, Philiades. But come near, will you not, and receive myspade!

Philiades

Help, help! this thankless brute has broken my head, for giving him good counsel.
