My haste may not admit it, Nor need you (on mine honour) have to do With any scruple: your scope is as mine own, So to enforce, or qualify the Laws As to your soul seems good: Give me your hand, I'll privily away: I love the people, But do not like to stage me to their eyes: Though it do well, I do not relish well Their loud applause, and Aves vehement: Nor do I think the man of safe discretion That does affect it. Once more far you well. The heavens give safety to your purposes. Led forth, and bring you back in happiness. I thank you, far you well. I shall desire you, Sir, to give me leave To have free speech with you; and it concerns me To look into the bottom of my place: A power I have, but of what strength and nature, I am not yet instructed. 'Tis so with me: Let us withdraw together, And we may soon our satisfaction have Touching that point. I'll wait upon your honour. If the Duke, with the other Dukes, come not to composition with the King of Hungary, why then all the Duke's fall upon the King. Heaven grant us its peace, but not the King of Hungaries. Amen. Thou concludest like the Sanctimonious Pirate, that went to sea with the ten Commandments, but scraped one out of the Table. Thou shalt not Steal? I, that he razed. Why? 'twas a commandment, to command the Captain and all the rest from their functions: they put forth to steal: There's not a Soldier of us all, that in the thanksgiving before meat, do rallish the petition well, that prays for peace. I never heard any Soldier dislike it. I believe thee: for I think thou never was't where Grace was said. No? a dozen times at least. What? In meeter? In any proportion. or in any language. I think, or in any Religion. I, why not? Grace, is Grace, despite of all controversy: as for example; Thou thyself art a wicked villain, despite of all Grace. Well: there went but a pair of shears between us. I grant: as there may between the Lists, and the Velvet. Thou art the List. And thou the Velvet; thou art good velvet; thou'rt a three pild-peece I warrant thee: I had as lief be a List of an English Kersey, as be piled, as thou art piled, for a French Velvet. Do I speak feelingly now? I think thou dost: and indeed with most painful feeling of thy speech: I will, out of thine own confession, learn to begin thy health; but, whilst I live forget to drink after thee. I think I have done myself wrong, have I not? Yes, that thou hast; whether thou art tainted, or free. Behold, behold, where Madam Mitigation comes. I have purchased as many diseases under her Roof, As come to To what, I pray? judge. To three thousand dolours a year.

My haſte may not admit it, Nor neede you (on mine honor) haue to doe With any ſcruple: your ſcope is as mine owne, So to inforce, or qualifie the Lawes As to your ſoule ſeemes good: Giue me your hand, Ile priuily away: I loue the people, But doe not like to ſtage me to their eyes: Though it doe well, I doe not relliſh well Their lowd applauſe, and Aues vehement: Nor doe I thinke the man of ſafe diſcretion That do's affect it. Once more fare you well. The heauens giue ſafety to your purpoſes. Lead forth, and bring you backe in happineſſe. I thanke you, fare you well. I ſhal deſire you, Sir, to giue me leaue To haue free ſpeech with you; and it concernes me To looke into the bottome of my place: A powre I haue, but of what ſtrength and nature, I am not yet inſtructed. 'Tis ſo with me: Let vs with-draw together, And we may ſoone our ſatisfaction haue Touching that point. Ile wait vpon your honor. If the Duke, with the other Dukes, come not to compoſition with the King of Hungary, why then all the Dukes fall vpon the King. Heauen grant vs its peace, but not the King of Hungaries. Amen. Thou conclud'ſt like the Sanctimonious Pirat, that went to ſea with the ten Commandements, but ſcrap'd one out of the Table. Thou ſhalt not Steale? I, that he raz'd. Why? 'twas a commandement, to command the Captaine and all the reſt from their functions: they put forth to ſteale: There's not a Souldier of vs all, that in the thankſ-giuing before meate, do ralliſh the petition well, that praies for peace. I neuer heard any Souldier diſlike it. I beleeue thee: for I thinke thou neuer was't where Grace was ſaid. No? a dozen times at leaſt. What? In meeter? In any proportion. or in any language. I thinke, or in any Religion. I, why not? Grace, is Grace, deſpight of all controuerſie: as for example; Thou thy ſelfe art a wicked villaine, deſpight of all Grace. Well: there went but a paire of ſheeres betweene vs. I grant: as there may betweene the Liſts, and the Veluet. Thou art the Liſt. And thou the Veluet; thou art good veluet; thou'rt a three pild-peece I warrant thee: I had as liefe be a Lyſt of an Engliſh Kerſey, as be pil'd, as thou art pil'd, for a French Veluet. Do I ſpeake feelingly now? I thinke thou do'ſt: and indeed with moſt painfull feeling of thy ſpeech: I will, out of thine owne confeſſion, learne to begin thy health; but, whilſt I liue forget to drinke after thee. I think I haue done my ſelfe wrong, haue I not? Yes, that thou haſt; whether thou art tainted, or free. Behold, behold, where Madam Mitigation comes. I haue purchaſ'd as many diſeaſes vnder her Roofe, As come to To what, I pray? Iudge. To three thouſand Dollours a yeare.
