How is it learned Gentlemen, With both your virtues. A most happy hour When we see you sir. When you hear me then, It will be happier; The Duke greets you both Thus, & though you may touch no money father, Yet you may take it. 'Tis his highness' bounty, But yet to me and those that have put off The world superfluous. We have heard of late his highness' good success. And gratulate it. Indeed he hath scaped a strange conspiracy, Thanks to his stars, which stars he prays by me, You would again consult and make a judgement On what you lately erected for my love. O sir, we dare not. For our lives. It is The PRINCE's Scheme. T'encounter With that fear Here's to assure you, his signet, write your names, And be secured all three. We must entreat some time Sir. I must then Entreat, it be as present as you can. Ha' you the Scheme here? Yes. I would you had Sir Another warrant. What would that do. Marry, We have a Doctor Sir that in this business Would not perform the second part. Not Him that you writ to me of? The very same. I should have made it Sir my suit to see him, Here is a warrant (Father), I conceived That he had solely applied himself to Magic. And to these studies too Sir, in this field He was imitated: but we shall hardly Draw him from his chair. Tell him he shall have gold. O such a syllable would make him forswear Ever to breathe in your sight. Sir, he (if you do please to give any thing) Must have't conveyed under a paper. Or left behind some book in his study. Or in some old wall. Where his Familiars May tell him of it, and that pleases him sir. Or else I'll go and assay him. Take gold with you. That will not be amiss, give it the boy sir, He knows his holes, and how to bait his spirits. We must lay in several places sir. That's true, That if one come not, the other may hit. Well go then; is he so learned Gentlemen? The very top of our profession, mouth of the Fa, Pray Heaven his spirits be in good humour to take, They'll fling the gold about the house else. ay, And beat the friar, if he go not well Furnished with holy water. Sir you must observe him. Not cross him in a word: for then he's gone. If he do come, which is a hazard yet, Mass he's there, this is speed. Where is your scheme? Let's see't; dispatch: nay fumbling now, who's this? Chief Gentleman of the Duke's chamber Doctor. O let him be, good even to him, he's a Courtier, I'll spare his compliment tell him: what's here? The geniture nocturnal longitude At twenty one degrees the latitude At forty nine and ten minutes, how are the Cardines? Libra in twenty four, forty four minutes, And Capricorn.
