ernal, that would make up sport. Now to the revelation of that secret She promis'd when she fell in love with you. Fran. You 're passionately met in this sad world. Zan. I would have you look up, sir; these court tears Claim not your tribute to them: let those weep, That guiltily partake in the sad cause. I knew last night, by a sad dream I had, Some mischief would ensue: yet, to say truth, My dream most concern'd you. Lodo. Shall 's fall a-dreaming? Fran. Yes, and for fashion sake I 'll dream with her. Zan. Methought, sir, you came stealing to my bed. Fran. Wilt thou believe me, sweeting? by this light I was a-dreamt on thee too; for methought I saw thee naked. Zan. Fie, sir! as I told you, Methought you lay down by me. Fran. So dreamt I; And lest thou shouldst take cold, I cover'd thee With this Irish mantle. Zan. Verily I did dream You were somewhat bold with me: but to come to 't---- Lodo. How! how! I hope you will not got to 't here. Fran. Nay, you must hear my dream out. Zan. Well, sir, forth. Fran. When I threw the mantle o'er thee, thou didst laugh Exceedingly, methought. Zan. Laugh! Fran. And criedst out, the hair did tickle thee. Zan. There was a dream indeed! Lodo. Mark her, I pray thee, she simpers like the suds A collier hath been wash'd in. Zan. Come, sir; good fortune tends you. I did tell you I would reveal a secret: Isabella, The Duke of Florence' sister, was empoisone'd By a fum'd picture; and Camillo's neck Was broke by damn'd Flamineo, the mischance Laid on a vaulting-horse. Fran. Most strange! Zan. Most true. Lodo. The bed of snakes is broke. Zan. I sadly do confess, I had a hand In the black deed. Fran. Thou kept'st their counsel. Zan. Right; For which, urg'd with contrition, I intend This night to rob Vittoria. Lodo. Excellent penitence! Usurers dream on 't while they sleep out sermons. Zan. To further our escape, I have entreated Leave to retire me, till the funeral, Unto a friend i' th' country: that excuse Will further our escape. In coin and jewels I shall at least make good unto your use An hundred thousand crowns. Fran. Oh, noble wench! Lodo. Those crowns we 'll share. Zan. It is a dowry, Methinks, should make that sun-burnt proverb false
