And I mine by the stroke of my friend. The close stock! o mortal wench: Lady, ha' ye now no restoratives for your decayed Iasons? Look ye, crabs guts baked, distilled ox-pith, the pulverised hairs of a lions upper lip, jelly of cocke●sparrowes, he monkeys marrow, or powder of fox-stones. And whither are you ambling now? To bed, to bed. Do your husbands lie with ye? That were country fashion i'faith. Ha ye no foregoers about you: come, whither in good deed law now? In good indeed law now, to eat the most miraculously, admirably, astonishable composed posset with three curds, without any drink: will ye help me with a he fox? here's the Duke. Fried frogs are very good & French like too:— The night grows deep and fowl, what hour be't? Upon the stroke of twelve. Save ye Duke. From thee; be gone, I do not love thee, let me see thee no more, we are displeased. Why God be with thee, heaven hear my curse, May thy wife and thee live long together. Be gone sirrah. When Arthur first in Court began,— Agamemnon: Menelnm— was ever any Duke a Cornuto? Be gone hence. What religion wilt thou be of next? Out with him. With most servile patience time will come, When wonder of thy error will strike dumb, Thy bezeld sense, slaves I favour, I mary shall he, rise, Good God how subtle hell doth flatter vice, Mount● him aloft, and makes him seem to fly, As Fowl the Tortoise mocked, who to the sky, Th'ambitious shellfish raised; th'end of all, Is only, that from height he might dead fall. Why when? out ye rogue, be gone ye rascal. I shall now leave ye with all my best wishes. Out ye cur. Only lets hold together a firm correspondence. Out. A mutual friendly reciprocal perpetual kind of steady unanimous heartily leagued. Hence ye gross jawed pesantly, out, go. Adieu pigeon house: thou Burr that only stickest to nappy fortunes, the Sarpego, the Strangury, an eternal uneffectual Priapism seize thee. Out rogue. Mayest thou be a notorious wittolly pander to thine own wife, and yet get no office but live to be the utmost misery of mankind, a beggarly cuckold. It shall be so. It must be so, for where great states revenge, This requisite the parts with piety, And lost respect forbears, be closely dogged, Lay one into his breast shall sleep with him, Feed in the same dish, run in self faction, Who may discover any shape of danger; For once disgraced, displayed in offence, It makes man blushless, and man is (all confess) Moore prone to vengeance than to gratefulness. Favours are writ in dust, but stripes we feel, Depraved nature stamps in lasting steel. You shall be leagued with the Duchess. The plot is very good. You shall both kill, and seem the course to save. A most fine brain trick. Of a most cunning knave.
