"Per. A gentleman of Tyre—(my name, Pericles;
My education being in arts and arms;)—

A gentleman of Tyre, who only by
Misfortune of the seas has been bereft
Of ships and men, and cast upon this shore.

And will awake him from his melancholy."Ib.

And crown you king of this day's happiness.
"Per. 'Tis more by fortune, lady, than my merit."Ib.
