_ I
Can vouch your courage, and, as far as my
Own brief connection led me, honour.
Can vouch your courage, and, as far as my

Byron
_Stral. _ Ulric! you know this man; I found him in 240
_Your_ company.
_Gab. _ We found _you_ in the Oder;
Would we had left you there!
_Stral. _ I give you thanks, sir.
_Gab. _ I've earned them; but might have earned more from others,
Perchance, if I had left you to your fate.
_Stral. _ Ulric! you know this man?
_Gab. _ No more than you do
If he avouches not my honour.
_Ulr.
_ I
Can vouch your courage, and, as far as my
Own brief connection led me, honour.
_Stral. _ Then
I'm satisfied.
_Gab. _ (_ironically_). Right easily, methinks.
What is the spell in his asseveration 250
More than in mine?
_Stral. _ I merely said that _I_
Was satisfied--not that you are absolved.
_Gab. _ Again! Am I accused or no?
_Stral. _ Go to!
You wax too insolent. If circumstance
And general suspicion be against you,
Is the fault mine?
