your finical talke, and let's dispatch, _Charles_. _Cha._ Dispatch? What? _Bri._ Why the land. _Cha._ You are deceiv'd, Sir, Now I perceive what 'tis that woes a woman, And what maintaines her when shee's woo'd: Ile stop here. A wilfull poverty nere made a beauty, Nor want of meanes maintain'd it vertuously: Though land and monies be no happinesse, Yet they are counted good additions. That use Ile make; He that neglects a blessing, Though he want present knowledge how to use it, Neglects himself; May be I have done you wrong Lady, Whose love and hope went hand in hand together; May be my brother, that has long expected The happie houre and blest my ignorance; Pray give me leave Sir, I shall cleare all doubts. Why did they shew me you? Pray tell me that? (_Mir._ Hee'l talke thee into a pension for thy knaverie) _Cha._ You happie you, why did you breake unto me? The rosie sugred morne nere broke so sweetly: I am a man, and have desires within me, Affections too, though they were drown'd a while, And lay dead, till the Spring of beautie rais'd them; Till I saw those eyes, I was but a lump; A Chaos of confusedness dwelt in me; Then from those eyes shot Love, and he distinguisht, And into forme he drew my faculties; And now I know my Land, and now I love too. _Bri._ We had best remove the Maide. _Cha._ It is too late Sir. I have her figure here. Nay frowne not _Eustace_, There are lesse worthie soules for younger brothers; This is no forme of silk but sanctitie, Which wilde lascivious hearts can never dignifie. Remove her where you will, I walk along still; For like the light we make no separation; You may sooner part the billowes of the Sea, And put a barre betwixt their fellowships, Than blot out my remembrance; sooner shut Old time into a Den, and stay his motion, Wash off the swift houres from his downie wings, Or steale eternitie to stop his glasse, Than shut the sweet Idea I have in me. Roome for an elder brother, pray give place, Sir. _Mir._ Has studied duel too, take heed, hee'l beat thee. Has frighted the old Justice into a fever; I hope hee'l disinherit him too for an asse; For though he be grave with yeeres, hee's a great babie. _Cha._ Doe not you think me mad? _Ang._ No certain, Sir, I have heard nothing from you but things excellent. _Cha._ You looke upon my cloathes and laugh at me, My scurvie clothes! _Ang._ They have rich linings Sir. I would your brother-- _Cha._ His are gold
