. Your father, madam-- _Enter_ NONSUCH. _Isa_. The tempest is risen; I see it in his face; he puffs and blows yonder, as if two of the winds were fighting upwards and downwards in his belly. _Set_. Will he not find your false keys, madam? _Isa_. I hope he will have more humanity than to search us. _Const_. You are come after us betimes, sir. _Non_. Oh child! I am undone; I am robbed, I am robbed; I have utterly lost all stomach to my dinner. _Const_. Robbed! good my lord, how, or of what? _Non_. Two hundred and fifty pounds, in fair gold, out of my study: An hundred of it I was to have paid a courtier this afternoon for a bribe. _Set_. I protest, my lord, I had as much ado to get that parcel of gold for your lordship-- _Non_. You must get me as much more against to-morrow; for then my friend at court is to pay his mercer. _Isa_. Nay, if that be all, there's no such haste: the courtiers are not so forward to pay their debts. _Const_. Has not the monkey been in the study? He may have carried it away, and dropt it under the garden-window: the grass is long enough to hide it. _Non_. I'll go see immediately. _Enter_ FAILER, BURR, TIMOROUS. _Fail_. This is the gentleman, my lord. _Non_. He's welcome. _Fail_. And this the particular of his estate. _Non_. That's welcome too. _Fail_. But, besides the land here mentioned, he has wealth in specie. _Non_. A very fine young gentleman. _Tim_. Now, my lord, I hope there's no great need of wooing: I suppose my estate will speak for me; yet, if you please to put in a word-- _Non_. That will I instantly. _Tim_. I hope I shall have your good word, too, madam, to your cousin for me. [_To_ ISABELLA. _Isa_. Any thing within my power, Sir Timorous. _Non_. Daughter, here's a person of quality, and one, that loves and honours you exceedingly-- _Tim_. Nay, good my lord! you discover all at first dash. _Non_. Let me alone, sir; have not I the dominion over my own daughter? Constance, here's a knight in love with you, child. _Const_. In love with me, my lord! it is not possible. _Non_. Here he stands, that will make it good, child. _Tim_. Who, I, my lord? I hope her ladyship has a better opinion of me than so. _Non_. What! are not you in love with my daughter? I'll be sworn you told me so but even now: I'll eat words for no man. _Tim_. If your ladyship will believe all reports, that are raised on men of quality-- _Non
