e turn'd with leavers; Are you the Courtiers and the travail'd Gallants? The spritely fellowes, that the people talk of? Ye have no more Spirit than three sleepy sops. _Eust._ What would ye have me doe, Sir? _Bri._ Follow your brother, And get ye out of doores, and seeke your fortune, Stand still becalm'd, and let an aged Dotard, A haire-brain'd puppie, and a bookish boy, That never knew a blade above a penknife, And how to cut his meat in Characters, Crosse my designe, and take thine owne Wench from thee, In mine owne house too? Thou dispis'd poore fellow! _Eust._ The reverence that I ever bare to you Sir, Then to my Uncle, with whom't had been but sawcinesse T'have been so rough-- _Egre._ And we not seeing him Strive in his owne cause, that was principal, And should have led us on, thought it ill manners To begin a quarrel here. _Bri._ You dare doe nothing.

It would shew fine in us. _Eust._ Yes marry would it, That are prime Courtiers, and must know no angers, But give thankes for our injuries, if we purpose To hold our places. _Bri._ Will you find the doore? And finde it suddenlie, you shall lead the way, Sir, With your perfum'd retinew, and cover The now lost _Angellina_, or build on it, I will adopt some beggers doubtful issue Before thou shall inherit. _Eust._ Wee'l to councel, And what may be done by mans wit or valour Wee'l put in execution. _Bri._ Doe, or never Hope I shall know thee. _Le._ O Sir, have I found you? [_Exeunt._ _Ent. Lewis._ _Bri._ I never hid my selfe, whence flows this fury? With which as it appeares, you come to fright me. _Lew._ I smell a plot, meere conspiracy Among ye all to defeate me of my daughter, And if she be not suddenly delivered,
