Wine too But, but me no butts, I care not a straw for his butts; dye hear sir, do you long to be grave's Wine. We are all friends. I, I, all friends on my word, Tost. Fire and water are not to be trusted, away new River, away, I wash my hands on thee. Come hither again, Tost. Over head and ears in Ale. How comes this about, Sugar. The truth is, sir, I told him of some difference between you, for he and I had been fallen out, and I had no other security to put in for myself, then to put him upon some body else. Nutmeg durst scarce speak to him, he was ready to put me in his pocket. I am cool again: I may believe you are friends; then I am content to put up. Sugar and Nutmeg, come, we be three. Let's be all one rather: and from henceforth since they are so well accorded, let's make no difference of our Masters, but belong to 'em in common: for my part, though I wait upon Wine, it shall not exempt my attendance on Beer, or Ale, if they please to command Sugar. A match, I am for any thing but Water. And I. But my service shall be ready for him to, Water and Sugar I hope, may be drunk together now and then, and not be brought within compass of the Statute, to be put i'th' stocks for't. Godamercy Sugar with all my heart, I shall love thy company, for I am solitary, and thou wilt make me pleasant. Stay. Hark Music? Oh some friends of mine, I know 'em, they often come upon the Water: let's entertain the air a little, never a voice among you? I jovial Wine exhilarate the heart. March Beer is drink for a King. But Ale, bonny Ale, with Spice and a Tost, In the morning's a dainty thing. Then let us be merry, wash sorrow away, Wine, Beer, and Ale shall be drunk to day. I generous Wine, am for the Court. The City calls for Beer. But Ale, bonny, Ale, like a Lord of the Soil, In the Country shall domineer. Then let us be merry, wash sorrow away, Wine, Beer, and Ale shall be drunk to day. Why, now could I dance for joy. Now you talk of dancing, Wine, 'tis one of your qualities, let's pay the Musicians all together: we have often made other men have light heads and heels, there's no hurt a little in tripping for ourselves, what say you? Strike up Piper. Lustily, make a merry day on't; nay, leave out none, at Dancing and Football, all fellows.
