Go to, my merry daughter, o these looks, Agree well with your habit, do they not? Tut, let me alone. By your favour, this is the Gentleman I think, Sir you appear to be an honourable Gentleman, I understand, and could wish (for mine own part) that things were conden't otherwise than they are: but (the world knows) a foolish fellow, somewhat proclive, and hasty, he did it in a prejudicate humour; mary now upon better computation, he wanes; he melts; his poor eyes are in a cold sweat. Right noble signor, you can have but compunction, I love the man, tender your compassion. Doth any man here understand this fellow? O God sir, I may say frustra to the comprehension of your intellection. Before the Lord, he speaks all riddle, I think. I must have a comment ere I can conceive him. Why he sues to have his fellow Onion pardoned, And you must grant it signor. O with all my soul my Lord, is that his motion? ay sir, and we shall retort these kind favours with all alacrity of spirit, we can sir, as may be most expedient, as well for the quality as the cause, till when in spite of this complement: I rest a poor Cobbler, servant to my honourable Lord here, your friend and juniper. How juniper? I signor. He is a sweet youth, his tongue has a happy turn when he sleeps. I for then it rests, O Sir your welcome, Why God be thanked you are found at last. signor Coloma truly you are welcome, I am glad to see you sir so well returned. I gladly thank your honour, yet indeed I am sorry for such cause of heaviness, As hath possessed your Lordship in my absence. O Francisco you knew her what she was! She was a wise and honourable Lady. I was she not! well weep not she is gone, Passions dulled eye can make two grieves of one, Whom death mark out, virtue, nor blood can save, Princes, as beggars, all must feed the grave. Are your horse ready Lord Paulo, I signor the stay for us at the gate. Well 'tis good. Ladies I will take my leave of you, Be your fortunes as yourselves? fair. Come let us to horse, Count Ferneze I bear a spirit full of thanks for all your honourable courtesies. Sir I could wish the number and value of them more in respect of your deservings. But signor Maxmilian. I pay you a word in private. i'faith brother you are fitted for a general yonder, Beshrew my heart (If I had Fortunatus' hat here) and I would not wish myself a man and go with you, only t'enjoy his presence. Why do you love him so well sister.

Go to, my merry daughter, ô theſe lookes, Agree well with your habit, do they not? Tut, let me alone. By your fauour, this is the Gentleman I thinke, Sir you appeare to be an honorable Gentleman, I vnderſtand, and could wiſh (for mine owne part) that things were conden't otherwiſe then they are: but (the world knowes) a fooliſh fellow, ſomewhat procliue, and haſty, he did it in a preiudicate humour; mary now vpon better computation, he wanes; he melts; his poore eyes are in a cold ſweat. Right noble Signior, you can haue but compunction, I loue the man, tender your compaſſion. Doth any man here vnderſtand this fellow? O God ſir, I may ſay fruſtra to the comprehenſion of your intellection. Before the Lord, he ſpeakes all riddle, I thinke. I muſt haue a comment ere I can conceiue him. Why he ſues to haue his fellow Onion pardon'd, And you muſt grant it Signior. O with all my ſoule my Lord, is that his motion? I ſir, and we ſhall retort theſe kinde fauours with all allacrity of ſpirit, we can ſir, as may be moſt expedient, as well for the quality as the cauſe, till when in ſpight of this complement: I reſt a poore Cobler, ſeruant to my honorable Lord here, your friend and Iuniper. How Iuniper? I Signior. He is a ſweete youth, his tongue has a happy turne when he ſleepes. I for then it reſts, O Sir your welcome, Why God be thanked you are found at laſt. Signior Coloma truly you are welcome, I am glad to ſee you ſir ſo well returned. I gladly thanke your honour, yet indeed I am ſory for ſuch cauſe of heauineſſe, As hath poſſeſt your Lordſhip in my abſence. O Franciſco' you knew her what ſhe was! She was a wiſe and honorable Lady. I was ſhe not! well weepe not ſhe is gone, Paſſons duld eye can make two grieues of one, Whom death marke out, vertue, nor bluod can ſaue, Princes, as beggers, all muſt feed the graue. Are your horſe ready Lord Paulo, I ſignior the ſtay for vs at the gate. Well tis good. Ladies I will take my leaue of you, Be your fortunes as your ſelues? faire. Come let vs to horſe, Count Ferneze I beare a ſpirit full of thanks for all your honorable courteſies. Sir I could wiſh the number and value of them more in reſpect of your deſeruings. But Signior Maximillian. I pay you a word in priuate. I Faith brother you are fitted for a generall yonder, Beſhrow my heart (If I had Fortunatus hat here) and I would not wiſh my ſelfe a man and go with you, only t'enioy his preſence. Why do you loue him ſo well ſiſter.
