That is as much to say, a man should hear more Than he should speak. You say true, and indeed I have heard more, Than at this time I will speak, You say well. Slanders are more common than troths master Flowerdale? But proof is the rule for both. You say true, what do you call him Hath it there in his third canton? I have heard you have been wild: I have believed it. 'twas fit, 'twas necessary. But I have seen somewhat of late in you, That hath confirmed in me an opinion of Goodness toward you. I'faith sir, I am sure I never did you harm: Some good I have done, either to you or yours, I am sure you know not, neither is it my will you should. I your will sir. I my will sir 'sfoot do you know aught of my will? be-god and you do sir, I am abused. Go master Flowerdale, what I know, I know, And know you thus much out of my knowledge, That I truly love you. For my daughter, She yours. And if you like a marriage better Then a brawl, all quirks of reputation set aside, go with me presently: And where you should fight a bloody battle, you shall be married to a lovely Lady, Nay but sir Lancelot? If you will not embrace my offer yet assure yourself thus much, I will have order to hinder your encounter. Nay but hear me sir Lancelot. Nay stand not you upon imputative honour. 'tis merely unsound, unprofitable, and idle: Inferences your business is to wed my daughter, therefore give me your present word to do it, i'll go and provide the maid, therefore give me your present resolution, either now, or never. Will you so put me too it? I afore God, either take me now, or take me never, Else what I thought should be our match, shall be our parting, So fare you well for ever. Stay: fall out, what may fall, my love Is above all: I will come. I expect you, and so fare you well. Now sir, how shall we do for wedding apparel? By the mass that's true: now help Kit, The marriage ended, we'll make amends for all. Well no more, prepare you for your bride, We will not want for clothes, whatsoe'er betide. And thou shalt see, when once I have my dower, In mirth we'll spend, Full many a merry hour: As for this wench, I not regard a pin, It is her gold must bring my pleasures in. Is't possible, he hath his second living, Forsaking God, himself to the devil giving But that I knew his mother firm and chaste, My heart would say, my head she had disgraced: Else would I swear, he never was my son, But her fair mind so foul a deed did shun, How now brother, how do you find your son?
