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 to night, 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 Polinesta 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 will ye prove that he is not Erostrato, having such presumptions to the contrary? or how shall it be thought that you are Philogano, when an other 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, & 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: & 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 he give me your favour continually.

YEa dreſſe them, but lay them not to the fire, till they will 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 bene 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 goe into the towne and buye oranges, oliues, 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 told him theſe newes of Dulipo, he is cleane beſide himſelf: 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 truth we will teache maiſter Doctor to weare a cornerd cappe of a new faſhion. By God Polyneſta ſhal be his, he ſhall haue hir out of doubt, for I haue tolde Eroſtrato ſuch newes of hir, that he will none of hir. YEa, but howe will ye proue that he is not Eroſtrato, hauing ſuch preſumptiōs to the cōtrarie? or how ſhall 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 tel you ſir, let me be kept here faſt in priſon, & at my charges let there be ſome man ſent into Sicilia, that may bring hither with him two or thrée of the honeſteſt mē in Cathanea, and by them let it be proued if I or this other be Philogano, and whether he be Eroſtrato or Dulipo my ſeruant: & 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 reward you as you haue deſerued. Then ſhall he giue me your fauour continually.
