To banishment. My name is written in the oyster shell; I am too happy in a wife Iack Love-all, My fellow Citizens do envy me. Farewell. In troth I thank you heartily, I hope you'll first deliver back again My Sword and Hat. By my best wishes Iack I thought not of them; 'pray thee take them to thee. I will take thee my little Cupid-whipper. You must not go. Let me alone good Love-all, Dost thou not hear how with an even gale That Southwest wind murmurs amongst the trees? Within these four and twenty hours I may Touch on the Belgic shore. The Belgic shore? What wilt thou do there man? I'll trail a pike, Turn Lanceprezado, or Bedee, or any thing To patch up a wretched life. You'll turn a coxcomb. I never shall endure to live a husband The very name of wife will turn my stomach. I shall have threescore vomits in a day. What wilt thou say now Anteros if I set thee As free from this same marriage, as the child Which ten months since was but an Embryo? Thou canst not. I can do it, fear it not. Thou canst nor man, 'tis past recovery. What wilt thou give me if I do effect it? Give thee? I'll sacrifice myself unto thee My Iupiter, build up a Temple for thee Shall take the heavens from Atlas' shoulders, and Give him a jubilee for ever— Speak. He shall be at leisure all the rest of's life, For to catch Butterflies— But you do mock me, Farewell. But stay. Do but effect it Iack. And I will straight make war upon the Turk, Give thee his Diadem and Sceptre— Speak. The Persian shall be the Master of thy Horse, The German I will make thy cupbearer. Ha, ha, he. And so I shall have all my drink drunk up, Thank you for that. Nay wilt thou speak, or else Let me be gone.— The Dukes of Italy Shall be thy footboys. Here's a brave promiser! Why this out does the Court; but dost thou hear? How wilt thou do all this? Nay' troth I know not, But I will do it, and let that suffice. Well then be silent.— Placenta the Shepherd's wife Soon as she heard a marriage was in motion Betwixt my Kinswoman and yourself, came running To me in haste, and cried what do they mean? It is not fit, nor can it be (unless That they will violate the laws of Nature) That Anteros should have this Gentlewoman; I ask the cause, the Midwife answereth Because she is his Sister. How? my Sister? And is it possible that this is true? True. Stay. Nay will you hear with patience? Or else— as silent as a midnight minute, Or else a Counsellor without a fee, I'll stand and hear, and suck it in, and—
