Slave, thou liest. zounds. Kill him. Oh hold; Sir, you dishonour much your brother, To counsel him 'gainst hospitality, To strike in his own house. You, Lord insolent, I will fight with you, Take this, as a challenge, and set your time. Tomorrow morning Ingen, 'tis that I covet, and provoke thee for. will you not strike him now? No, my good Boy Is both discreet and just in his advise, Thy glories are to last but for a day; Give me thy hand, tomorrow morning thou shalt be no Lo. Tomorrow noon, thou shalt not be at all. Pish, why should you think so, have not I arms, A soul as bold as yours, a sword as true: I do not think your Honour in the field Without your Lordship's liveries will have odds. Farewell, and let's have no excuses, pray. I warrant you, pray say your prayers tonight, And bring no inkhorn w'ee, to set your hand to A satisfactory recantation. Oh wretched Maid, whose sword can I pray for? But by the other's loss, I must find death, Oh odious brother, if he kill my love, Oh bloody Love, if he should kill my brother; Despair on both sides of my discontent, tells me no safety rests but to prevent. What's o'clock Princox? Bedtime an't please you madam. Come, undress me, would God had made me a man. Why, madam? Because I would have been in bed as soon as they, we are so long unpinning and unlacing. Yet many of us madam are quickly undone sometime, but herein we have the advantage of men, though they can be a-bed sooner than we, it's a great while when they are a-bed ere they can get up. Indeed if they be well laid Princox, one cannot get them up again in haste. Oh God madam, how mean you that, I hope you know, ill things taken into a Gentlewoman's ears, are the quick corrupters of maiden modesty, I would be loath to continue in any service unfit for my virgin estate, or where the world should take any notice of light behaviour in the Lady I follow: for madam, the main point of chastity in a Lady, is to build the rock of a good opinion amongst the people by circumstances, and a fair show she must make, Si, non cast, tamen caste Madame, and though wit be a wanton madam: yet I beseech your Ladyship for your own credit and mine, let the bridle of judgement be always in the chaps of it to give it head, or restrain it, according as time and place shall be convenient. Precise and learned Princox, dost not thou go to Blackfriars. Most frequently madam, unworthy vessel that I am to partake or retain any of the delicious dew, that is there distilled.

Slaue, thou liest. Z'oones. Kill him. Oh hold; Sir, you dishonour much your brother, To counsaile him 'gainst hospitalitie, To strike in his owne house. You, Lord insolent, I will fight with you, Take this, as a challenge, and set your time. To morrow morning Ingen, T'is that I couet, and prouoke thee for. Wil you not strike him now? No, my good Boy Is both discreete and just in his aduise, Thy glories are to last but for a day; Giue me thy hand, to morrow morning thou shalt be no Lo. To morrow noone, thou shalt not be at all. Pish, why should you thinke so, haue not I armes▪ A soule as bold as yours, a sword as true: I doe not thinke your Honor in the field Without your Lordships liueries will haue oddes.

Oh wretched Maid, whose sword can I pray for?
