You are merry with your friends, good master By-Blow, and we are guests here in your uncle's house, and therefore privileged. I presume you had no more privilege in your getting than I. But tell me gentlemen, is there any man here amongst you, that hath a mind to see his father? Why, who shall show him? That's all one; if any man here desire it, let him but speak the word, and 'tis sufficient. Why, I would see my father. Strike. Do you know him that looks so full in your face; Yes well, a pedant in my father's house. Who being young, taught me my A, B, C. In his house, that goes for your father you would say: For know one morning, when your mother's husband rid early to have a Nisi prius tried at Lancaster 'Sizes, he crept into his warm place, lay close by her side, and then were you got. Then come, your heels and tail together, and kneel unto your own dear father. Ha, ha, ha. I am abused. Why laugh you Gentlemen? It may be more men's cases than his or mine. Bant. To be thus jeered. Come, take it as a jest For presume 'twas meant no otherwise. Would either of you two now see his father in earnest Yes, canst thou show me mine? . He looks on you speak, do you know him? Yes, he was my mother's tailor, I remember him ever since I was a child. Who when he came to take measure of her upper parts had more mind to the lower, whilst the good man was in the fields hunting, he was at home whoring. Then, since no better comfort can be had, Come down, come down, ask blessing of your dad. Ha, ha, ha This cannot be endured. It is plain Witchcraft. Nay since we all are bid unto one feast, let's fare alike, come show me mine too. Strike. He points at you. What then? You know him. Yes, Robin the groom belonging to this house. And never served your father? In's youth I think he did. Who when your supposed father had business at the Lord president's Court in York, stood for his Attorney at home, & so it seems you were got by deputy: what all a mort? if you will have but a little patience, stay & you shall see mine too: And know I show you him the rather, To find who hath the best man to his Father. — Now Gentlemen make me your precedent, learn your duties, and do as I do— A blessing Dad. Come, come, let's home, we'll find some other time, When to dispute of these things— Nay Gent. no parting in spleen, since we have begun in mirth, let's not end in melancholy; you see there are more By-blows than bear the name; It is grown a great kindred in the Kingdom. Come, come, all friends; Let's into the Cellar and conclude our Revels in a lusty health.
