YEa dress them, but lay them not to the fire, till they will be ready to sit down: this gear goeth in order: but if I had not gone in, there had fallen a foul fault. And what fault I pray thee? Marie, Dalio would have laid the shoulder of mutton and the Capon both to the fire at once, like a fool, he did not consider, that the one would have more roasting than the other. Alas, I would this were the greatest fault. Why? and either the one should have been burned before the other had been roasted, or else he must have drawn them off the spit: and they would have been served to the board either cold or raw. Thou hast reason Pasiphilo. Now sir, if it please you I will go into the town and buy oranges, olives, and capers, for without such sauce the supper were more than half lost. There are within already, doubt you not, there shall lack nothing that is necessary. Since I told him these news of Dulipo, he is clean beside himself: he hath so many hammers in his head, that his brains are ready to burst: and let them break, so I may sup with him tonight, what care I? But is not this Dominus noster Cleandrus that cometh before? well said, by my truth we will teach master Doctor to wear a cornered cap of a new fashion: by God Polynesta shall be his, he shall have her out of doubt, for I have told Erostrato such news of her, that he will none of her. YEa, but how wilt ye prove that he is not Erostrato, having such presumptions to the contrary? or how shall it be thought that you are Philogano, when another taketh upon him this same name, and for proof bringeth him for a witness, which hath been ever reputed here for Erostrato? I will tell you sir, let me be kept here fast in prison, and at my charges let there be some man sent into Sicilia, that may bring hither with him two or three of the honestest men in Cathanea and by them let it be proved if I or this other be Philogano, and whether he be Erostrato or Dulipo my servant: and if you find me contrary, let me suffer death for it. I will go salute master Doctor. It will ask great labour & great expenses to prove it this way, but it is the best remedy that I can see. God save you sir. And reward you as you have deserved. Then shall be give me your favour continually.

YEa dresse them, but lay them not to the fire, till they wil be ready to sit downe: this géere goeth in order: but if I had not gone in, there had fallen a foule faulte. And what fault I pray thée? Marie, Dalio would haue layd the shoulder of mutton and the Capon bothe to the fire at once, like a foole, he did not consider, that the one woulde haue more roasting than the other. Alas, I would this were the greatest fault. Why? and either the one should haue bene burned before the other had ene roasted, or else he muste haue drawne them off the spitte: and they would haue bene serued to the boorde either colde or rawe. Thou hast reason Pasiphilo. Now sir, if it please you I will go into the towne and buye oranges, lyues, and caphers, for without suche sauce the supper were more than halfe lost. There are within already, doubt you not, there shal lacke nothing that is necessarie. Since I tolde him these newes of Dulipo, he is cleane beside him selfe: he hath so many hammers in his head, that his braynes are ready to burst: and let them breake, so I may suppe with him to night, what care I? But is not this Dominus noster Cleandrus that commeth before? well sayde, by my truthe we will teache master Doctor to weare a cornerd cappe of a new fashion: by God Polynesta shall be his, he shall haue hir out of doubt, for I haue tolde Erostrato suche newes of hir, that he will none of hir. YEa, but how wilt▪ ye proue that he is not Erostrato, hauing suche presumptiōs to the cōtrarie? or how shal it be thought that you are Philogano, when an other taketh vpon him this same name, and for proofe bringeth him for a witnesse, which hath bene euer reputed here for Erostrato? I will tell you sir, let me e kepte héere faste in prison, and at my charges let there be some man sente into Sicilia▪ that may bring hither with him two or thrée of the honestest men in Cathnea and by them let it be proued if I or this other be Philogano, and whether he be Erostrato or Dulipo my seruant: and if you finde me contrarie, let me suffer death for it. I will go salute master Doctour. It will aske great labour & great expences to proue it this way, but it is the best remedie that I can see. God saue you sir. And rewarde you as you haue deserued. Then shall be giue me your fauour continually.
