Marry he's gone to our house in the Country To make all things in a readiness against my new Mistress comes thither, but he'll come again to morrow. This is suddenly dispatched belike: Well, sirrah boy, take Saunder in with you, And have him to the buttery presently. I will sir: come Saunder. Valeria, as erst we did devise, Take thou thy lute and go to Alfonso's house, And say that Polidor sent thee thither. I Valeria, for he spoke to me, To help him to some cunning Musician, To teach his eldest daughter on the lute, And thou I know wilt fit his turn so well, As thou shalt get great favour at his hands, Be gone Valeria, and say I sent thee to him. I will sir, and stay your coming at Alfonso's house. Now sweet Aurelius, by this device Shall we have leisure for to court our loves, For whilst that she is learning on the lute, Her sisters may take time to steal abroad, For otherwise she'll keep them both within. And make them work whilst she herself doth play. But come, let's go unto Alfonso's house, And see how Valeria and Kate agrees I doubt his music scarce will please his scholar, But stay, here comes Alfonso. What M. Polidor! you are well met, I thank you for the man you sent to me, A good Musician I think he is; I have set my daughter and him together, But is this gentleman a friend of yours? He is, I pray you sir bid him welcome, He's a wealthy merchants son of Cestus. You're welcome sir, and if my house afford You any thing that may content your mind, I pray you sir make bold with me. I thank you sir, and if what I have got By merchandise or travel on the seas, Satins, or lawns, or azure coloured silk, Or precious fiery pointed stones of India, You shall command, both them, myself, and all. Thanks gentle sir, Polidor take him in, And bid him welcome unto my house, For thou I think must be my second son; Ferando, Polidor dost thou not know Must marry Kate, and to morrow is the day. Such news I heard, and I came now to know. Polidor 'tis true, go let me alone, For I must see against the bridegroom come, That all things be according to his mind, And so i'll leave you for an hour or two. Come then Aurelius, come in with me, And we'll go sit a while and chat with them, And after bring them forth to take the air. Sim, when will the fool come again? he'll come again my Lord anon. Gis some more drink here, 'zounds where's The Tapster, here Sim, eat some of these things. So I do my Lord. Hear Sim, I drink to thee. My Lord here comes the Players again. O brave, here's two fine gentlewomen.
