I your Father? he was a man I always loved And honoured. He bred me. And you begot me? oh you used me finely last night? Pray what's the matter Sir? My worthy friend, but that I honour you As one to whom I am so much obliged, This Villain could not stir a foot from hence Till perished by my sword. How hath he wronged you? Be of a milder temper I entreat, Relate what and when done? You may command me, If ask me what wrongs, know this Groom pretends He hath strumpeted my mother, if when, blazed Last night at midnight. If you ask me further Where, in your own house; when he pointed to me As had I been his Bastard. I do this? I am a horse again if I got you, Master, why Master. I know you Mr. Arthur, for a Gentleman Of fair endowments, a most solid brain, And settled understanding. Why this fellow These two days was scarce sundered from my side, And for the last night I am most assured He slept within my Chamber, 12. miles off, We have ne'er parted since. You tell me wonders. Since all your words to me are Oracles, And such as I most constantly believe. But Sir, shall I be bold and plain withal, I am suspicious all's not well at home; I dare proceed no farther without leave, Yet there is something lodged within my breast Which I am loath to utter. Keep it there, I pray do a season (O my fears) In my Uncle's absence who but I should comfort my Aunt, Am I not of the Blood, am not I next of Kin? Why Aunt? Good Nephew leave me. The Devil shall leave you ere i'll forsake you, Aunt, you know, Sic is So, and being so sick do you think i'll leave you, what know I but this Bed may prove your deathbed, and and then I hope you will remember me, that is, remember me in your Will. Who's that knocks with such authority. Ten to one my uncle's come to town. If it be so, excuse my weakness to him, say I can speak with none. I will, and scape him if I can; by this accident all must come out, and here's no stay for me Again, stay you here with your Aunt, and i'll go let in your Uncle. Do good Mal, and how, and how sweet Aunt? Y'are well met here, I am told you oft frequent This house as my wife's choice companion, Yet have I seldom seen you. Pray, by your leave Sir, Your wife is taken with a sudden qualm She hath sent me for a Doctor. But that labour i'll save you, Soldier take her to your charge. And now where's this sick woman. O Uncle you come in good time, my Aunt is so suddenly taken as if she were ready to give up the spirit.
