Fiddle 'tis done, & peace it is, commend me to thy mistress. After the most humble manner I will; and so gentlemen I commit you all: you Cripple to your shop; you sir, to a turnup and dish of capers; and lastly, you M. Barnard, to the tuition of the Counter-keeper: there's an Item for you, and so farewell. M. Bowdler, how do you like his humour? By this light, I had not thought the clod had had so nimble a spirit: but Cripple farewell, I'll to Mall Berry, come Barnard along with me. Farewell sweet Signiors both, farewell, farewell. The conceit is good, Ferdinand entreats a marriage with my daughter; good, very good: for he is a Gentleman of good carriage, a wise man, a rich man, a careful man, and therefore worthy of my daughter's love: it shall be so. Mary and shall, kind Gentleman, my furtherance sayst thou? Yes Anthony, assure thyself, for by the motherly care that I bear to my daughter, it hath been a desire that long hath lodged within my careful breast, to match her with thy well-deserving self; and to this end have I sent for my daughter, and charged my servants, that presently upon her repair hither from her mistresses, that she enter this private walk, where, and with whom, I will so work, that doubt it not, dear son, but she shall be thine. And I will make her jointure of a hundred pounds by year: it is a very good conceit, and why? because the worthy portion betters my conceit, which being good in conceiving well of the Gentleman's good parts, the proffered jointure adds to my conceit, and betters it, very good. A thousand crowns for you to make the match, pretty heart, how love can work! by God's blessed mother, I vow she shall be thine, if I have any interest in my daughter; but stay, whom have I espied? my husband likewise reading of a Letter, and in so good an humour, i'll lay my life, good Gentleman he hath also wrought with him for his good will; and for I long to know the truth thereof, my sudden purpose shall experience it. What's here husband? a Letter from master Ferdinand, to entreat a marriage with your daughter. And here the like to you from Anthony to that effect, this is no good conceit, if she be mine, she shall be Ferdinand. If she respect her mother's favour, 'tis Anthony shall be her love. How wife? even so husband. You will not cross my purpose, will you? In this you shall not bridle me I swear. Is she not my daughter? You teach me husband, what your wife should say, I think her life is dearest unto me, Though you forget the long extremity And pain which I endured, when forth this womb With much ado she did enjoy the life she now doth breath, And shall I now suffer her destruction? Yea but conceit me wife.
