Stipes, Stipes I say. This is another voice another face Without all question this is Fairy Ground; My man is changed. ha, ha, he. St. Stip. hi, hi, hi. A sword too? a sword too? a whiniard too? Stipes. Well I will venture to speak whate'er come on 't, but stay, I'll first say o'er the charm my Mother learned me. Be'st thou devil gentle, or be'st thou devil cursed, In the name of Saint Swithin do thy worst. There's sauce for your eels whate'er you are. Now see if I cannot shape you an answer. Come nearer to me. Are you advised of that? older and wiser, Soft fire makes sweet Malt, No haste to hang true men; come nearer quoth you? I am near enough already for the good you'll do me I doubt, Come nearer say you? No good M. Devil I am very well I thank you, go to, come nearer when you have a Sword, a Twybill? My hands are bound man. What will become of this? St'. Stip. If your feet were bound too, I'll not trust you As long as you have a Sword by your side, a Whiniard. Do but hear me. Had not you a man today called Ieoffry? Yes marry had I; what say you to that now? Nay I'll keep myself out of your clutches I warrant you. But what's become of that same Ieoffry? Become? become?' suppose I spurred you an answer, and said I know not, what can you make of that now? make me a horse-nail of that. Do you desire to know? Yes marry do I. Crack me that nut now if you be a Gentleman Devil.— I am that Ieoffry, but no servant now Of yours, but mine own man: and am become Since your departure, noble, rich, valiant, Am formed a new out of the Mint,— behold me. And this great miracle Obron the Fairy King Has wrought upon me. Oberum? Oberum? you tell me strange things. But shall I tell thee stranger things than these? ' suppose you did. And such as shall be for thy benefit?— Would you would else. Nay stare on with your goggles till Barley comes to six pence a bushel. You know your wages, some wiser than some, cry I: I'll keep far enough off you: I'll tell you but so. Go to, go to, I am a crafty colt. You know I was your servant today. Well put the case. Poor, ill apparelled. Put the case the second time. But now you see how strangely altered. Well put the case again. What will you say now to the man that shall Pet you into the same condition? Recover you from rags and Russet, and Die you in scarlet: lick that rude lump your body Into the shape, and garb o'th' court? or (once) Make you a gentleman as I am now? Would you not thank him Stipes? ha? would you not thank him?
