Yes trust me there. Why then my Lord I thank you for my night's lodging. And I you for my hurt, if it were so? Keeper away, I discharge you of your prisoner. Lord marquess, you offered me disgrace to shoulder me. Sir I knew you not, and therefore you must pardon me And the rather it might be alleged to me of Mere simplicity, to see another dance with my mistress disguised, and I myself in presence: but seeing it Was our haps to damnify each other unwillingly, Let us be content with our harms, And lay the fault where it was and so become friends. I'faith I am content with my night's lodging If you be content with your hurt. Not content that I have it, but content To forget how I came by it. My Lord, here comes Lady Blanche, let's away. With good will, Lady you will stay? Madam. Mariana, as I am grieved with thy presence: So am I not offended for thy absence, And were it not a breach to modesty, Thou shouldest know before I left thee. How near is this humour to madness If you hold on as you begin, you are in a pretty way to scolding. To scolding housewife? Madam here comes one, There doth in deed. Fellow wouldest thou have any thing with anybody here? I have a letter to deliver to the Lady Mariana. Give it me. There must none but she have it. Go to foolish fellow. And therefore to ease the anger I sustain, I'll be so bold to open it, what's here? Sir Robert greets you well? Your Mistresses, his love, his life? Oh amorous man, How he entertains his new Mistresses? And bestows on Lubeck his old friend A horn night cap to keep in his wit. Madam though you have discourteously Read my letter, yet I pray you give it me. Then take it there, and there, and there. How far doth this differ from modesty: Yet will I gather up the pieces, which happily May show to me the intent thereof Though not the meaning. Your servant and love sir Robert of Windsor alias William the Conqueror, wisheth long health and happiness. Is this William the Conqueror, shrouded under The name of sir Robert of Windsor? Were he the Monarch of the world He should not dispossess Lubeck of his Love. Therefore I will to the Court, and there if I can Close to be friends with Lady Blaunch, And thereby keep Lubeck my Love for myself: And further the Lady Blaunch in her suit as much as I may. jealousy that sharps the lovers sight, And makes him conceive and construe his intent, Hath so bewitched my lovely Manville senses, That he misdoubts his Em that loves his soul. He doth suspect corrivals in his love: Which how untrue it is, be judge my God. But now no more: Here cometh Valingford: Shift him off now as thou hast done the other.
