Helen, the Widow, and Diana arrive in Marseilles. Helen assures the Widow that their travels are almost over, and everything will come to a happy conclusion. They meet an austringer (a falconer) who reports that the King has left Marseilles for Rossillion. Helen asks the austringer, since he is following the King, to take the King a petition. The austringer leaves, and Helen encourages the Widow and Diana to travel on to Rossillion.
Parolles arrives in Rossillion and asks the Fool to deliver a letter to Lafew. The Fool makes fun of Parolles for his misfortunes, and Lafew enters. The Fool tells Lafew that Parolles needs help because of his bad luck, and Lafew gives Parolles some money and tells him to leave. Parolles reveals his identity, and Lafew makes fun of him for losing the drum in Florence. Parolles claims that Lafew is obligated to help Parolles because Lafew’s initial accusation of Parolles’s cowardice is what led to the regiment’s cruel game with him. Lafew is about to debate Parolles on the subject when the King arrives, and Lafew sends Parolles to find food.
