Then Madam be composed as you wear wont, to music and delight, the time being Comic, will Seem short and pleasant, till his return From Portingale: and madam in this circle, Let your heart move, Honoured promotion is the sap of love. Come my soul's spaniel, my life's jetty substance, What's thy name? My names an honest name, a courtier's Name: 'tis lazarotto. What lazarotto. Or rather rotting in this lazy age, that Yields me no employments, I have mischief Within my breast more than my bulk can hold, I want a midwife to deliver it. I'll be the he one then, and rid thee soon Of this dull, leaden, and tormenting elf: Thou know'st the love betwixt Bellimperia and Andrea's bosom? ay, I do. How might I cross, it, my sweet mischief: Honey damnation how? Well: as many ways as there are paths to hell And that's enough i'faith: from usurers door There goes one path, from friars that nurse Whores, there goes another path: from broker's stalls, from rich that die and build no hospitals, Two other paths: from farmers that crack barns, With stuffing corn, yet starve the needy swarms, Another path: from drinking schools one, from Dicing houses, but from the court, none, none. Here is a slave just a the stamp, I with: Whose suck-souls, blacker than his name, Though it stand printed with a ravens quill. But lazarotto cross, my sister's love, and i'll Rain showers of Ducats in thy palm. Oh Ducats, dainty ducks forgive me, Ducats, i'll fetch you duck enough or gold, And think males, the punk wanton and the Bawd to wink. Discharge, discharge, good lazaratto, how we May cross my Sisters loving hopes. Nay? now i'll tell you. Thou knowest Andrea's gone ambassador. The better there's opportunity now list to me. Alcario the duke Medina's son, Dotes on your Sister Bellimperia, Him in her private gallery you shall place, To court her, let his protestations be, Fashioned with rich jewels, for in love, great, Gifts and gold have the best tongue to move, Let him not spare an oath, without a jewel, To bind it fast: Oh I know women's hearts What stuff they are made of, my Lord: Gifts and giving, will melt the chastest Seeming female living. Indeed andrea is but poor, though honourable, His bounty amongst soldiers soaks him dry, And there over great gifts may bewitch her eye. here's no fine villainy, no damned brother? But say she should deny his gifts, be all Composed of hate, as my mind gives me, that she wool; what then? Then thus: At his return to Spain, I'll Murder don Andrea. darest thou spirit. What dares not he do, that near hopes To Inherit. He dares be damned like thee. Dare I! Ha, ha, I have no hope of everlasting Height, my souls a Moore you know salvations White, what dare not I enact then, tush, he dies; I will make way to Bel-imperia's eyes.
