Constance! May that name in all other women be accursed beyond themselves. Hell itself could not have vapoured such an error forth, as I am lost in.

The Masquers are all gone sir. Gone Villain. They took their Coaches instantly, and dispersed themselves by several ways, I had no Commission to stay them. Are you so sensible of her loss?— My Niece might not withstanding her lost love have ta'en me home in her Coach. You shall have mine sir Paul and my company so far to see her; and whether their presentation were jest or earnest, I will not rest till I be satisfied; My Coach. I'll make no stay Sweet-heart. she's gone. Excellent! the Bride's stolen to bed. It should be so. I like the custom well. or if you apprehend it rightly, it expresseth duty in the Woman to lie prepared for him; and love in the Man, not to be slack to embrace that duty.
