, 3 Sailers._ Heaven bless your Worship.
_Ara._ Come Cousin, we'l withdraw into the Parlour: And if these honest
Friends will be pleased to drink what our House affords, they shall be
welcome.
_1 Sail._ Thank you Mistress with all our Hearts.
[Exeunt _all but Sailers_.
_2 Sail._ Well, this Mr. _Summerfield_ is a brave Fellow, Gadzooks he
is.
_3 Sail._ Ay _Tom_ so he is; had it not been for him, we had all been
taken on my Conscience.
_1 Sail._ On my Soul and so we had: O if you had but seen him when he
boarded the _Monsieur_, 'twou'd have made you laugh 'till you had split
your Sides. He came up to the Captain o'this fashion with a Slap--ha!
and gave him such a back-handed wipe, that he cut off his Head as
genteely, as tho he had served seven Years Apprenticeship to't.
_Enter Servant with a Bowl of Punch._
_Serv._ Gentlemen, Mr. _Summerfield_ desires ye to be merry, and has
sent you this to drink his Health.
_1 Sail._ O, the Lord bless him, he's a fine Gentleman, and so pray tell
him, and withal give him our hearty Thanks; Dost hear Boy?
_Serv._ Yes, yes, I will.
[_Exit._
_2 Sail._ What is't Brother?
_3 Sail._ Punch by this Light!
Omnes. _Hoo-ra; Hoo-ra; Viva_ Mr. _Summerfield, Viva, Hoora._
[The first Sailer takes the Bowl of Punch, walks in state round the
Stage, and sings; the others all follow.]
_Here's a Health to jolly_ Bacchus,
_Here's a Health to jolly_ Bacchus,
_Hi ho, hi ho, hi ho._
_For he will merry make us,_
_For he will merry make us,_
_Hi ho, hi ho, hi ho._
_Then sit ye down together,_
_Then sit ye down together._
[_They all sit down with the Bowl in the middle._
_2 Sail._ Pshaw! Pox o'th' this old Song, prithee let's have a Dance.
_3 Sail._ With all my Heart; strike up Musick.
_The Sailers and their Wives dance._
After the Dance.
1 Sail. _So, well done my Lads, now let's aboard amain,_
_And suck our Faces o're and o're again._
_Brandy we've got enough, by this blest Chance,_
_We'l nothing drink but Punch, when we get_ France.
_Omn._ Hoora! Hoora! Exeunt omnes.
_The End of the Third ACT._
ACT the Fourth.
_A Tavern._
[2 Tables, three Chairs to each.]
_Enter_ Compasse, Peg, _and_ Pettifog.
_A Drawer Meets them._
_Drawer._ Welcome Gentlemen. Please to walk into a Room?
_Compasse:_ Aye Boy. Come Mr. _Pettifog_, please you sit.
_Pettifog:_ With all
