Had you spared this Protestation, Sir, you might have dissembled your love to me the better. Dissemble? 'tis said sir. By this hand my lady's jealous already. Bless us! what looks are these! Sir I must take my leave, this is no time to trouble you. Nay good sir stay, and share in our ill Banquet. Hark, some friend I hope. Look sirrah.— Some of your old companions have brought you a fit of Mirth. But if they enter to make a Tavern of my house, i'll add a voice to their consort shall drown all their fiddling. What are they? Some that come in gentile fashion to present a Mask. Lock up the doors, and keep them out. Break them open and let them in— Shall I not be Master of my own house? Am not I the Master of it and you— Nay sister. Passion of my heart. Bu●●. madam, Madame. you must allow of reasonable things. Be contented, sir Philip in a noble Gentleman, and a Courtier, and as I apprehend. I dare warrant you sister these are of his friends, that come with their Loves to congratulate his fortune. Speak Master Nonsense. A speech of your would do't. Never credit me, but I for sooth am of that opinion, that it is as it were. I protest and vow— I should be as sorry as any Man.— It this were to be put into latin now. Which were the principal Verb. M. Nonsense, you have prevailed. You see I am content. But what I purpose, Fate shall not prevent. Did I not tell you. More lights, and let them enter. Gentlemen take your places. Sir Paul tonight forget your sorrow. So will I mine, though I renew ● tomorrow. Come sit sit. Mistress please you. You wrong your honour sir, your most humble Handmaid. Brother I told you always she had hasty humours, and as unreasonable as heart can wish: but soon over. Now she's as mild as any Dove again. Then we are friends; and she's my Dove again. Nor Love, ●or Fate dare ● accuse, For that my Love did mere fuse; But oh mine own unworthiness, That durst presume so mickle bliss. It was too much for me to love A Man, so like the Gods above; An angel's shape, a Saintlike voice, Are to Divine for Humane choice. Oh had I wishly given my heart, For to have loved him but in part; Sought only to enjoy his face; Or any one peculiar Grace Of Foot, of Hand, of Lip, or ay, I might have lived where now I die. But I presuming all to choose Am now condemned all to lose. 'tis well performed. Now we would gladly know. To whom we owe our thanks. That I'll deliver to you. meanwhile the rest desire they may withdraw a while. Light and all fair respect be given unto them.— The Woman's voice had much in't like my Niece. ●our niece sir Paul, ods me I must go see her.
