Alas Madam How would you have me help it, I did use All means I could, after he heard the music, To make him drunk in hope so to contain him, But the wine made him lighter, and his head Flew hither, ere I missed his heels. Nay he spoke Latin to the Lady. Oh most unpardonable! get him off Quickly, and discreetly, or if I live— 'tis not in my power he swears I am An absurd sober fellow, and if you keep A servant in his house to cross his humour, When the rich sword and belt comes home, he'll kill him.
