Now, princes,
for the service I have done you, The advantage of the time prompts me aloud
To call for recompense Appear it to your mind I have abandoned Troy, left my possessions,
incurred a traitor's name, exposed myself,
from certain and possessed conveniences, To doubtful fortunes here, to do you service What wouldst thou of us, Trojan?
Make demand You have a Trojan prisoner, called Antenor,
Yesterday took: Troy holds Antenor dear Oft have you -
often have you thanks therefore - Desired my Cressid in right great exchange, Whom Troy hath still denied. But this Antenor
Is such a wrest, so key to their affairs, That their negotiations all must slack,
Wanting this manage Antenor send, great princes,
And that shall buy my daughter
for the service I have done you, The advantage of the time prompts me aloud
