at they may commend you; look to your Roast and Bak'd meats handsomely, and what new Kick-shaws and delicate made things--Is th' Musick come? _But._ Yes, Sir, they're here at Breakfast. _Bri._ There will be a Masque too; you must see this Room clean, and, _Butler_, your door open to all good-fellows; but have an eye to your Plate, for there be Furies; my _Lilly_, welcome you are for the Linen, sort it, and see it ready for the Table, and see the Bride-bed made, and look the cords be not cut asunder by the Gallants too, there be such knacks abroad. Hark hither, _Lilly_, to morrow night at twelve a clo[c]k I'le sup w'ye: your husband shall be safe, I'le send ye meat too; before I cannot well slip from my company. _And._ Will you so, will you so, Sir? I'le make one to eat it, I may chance make you stagger too. _Bri._ No answer, _Lilly_? _Lil._ One word about the Linen; I'le be ready, and rest your Worships still. _And._ And I'le rest w'ye, you shall see what rest 'twill be. Are ye so nimble? a man had need have ten pair of ears to watch you. _Bri._ Wait on your Master, for I know he wants ye, and keep him in his Study, that the noise do not molest him. I will not fail my _Lilly_--Come in, sweet-hearts, all to their several duties. [_Exeunt._ _And._ Are you kissing ripe, Sir? Double but my Farm, and kiss her till thy heart ake. These Smock-vermine, how eagerly they leap at old mens kisses, they lick their lips at profit, not at pleasure; and if 't were not for the scurvy name of Cuckold, he should lie with her. I know she'll labour at length with a good Lordship. If he had a Wife now, but that's all one, I'le fit him. I must up unto my Master, he'll be mad with Study-- [_Exit._ ACTUS III. SCENA III. _Enter_ Charles. _Char._ What a noise is in this house? my head is broken, within a Parenthesis, in every corner, as if the Earth were shaken with some strange Collect, there are stirs and motions. What Planet rules this house? _Enter_ Andrew. Who's there? _And._ 'Tis I, Sir, faithful _Andrew_. _Char._ Come near, and lay thine ear down; hear'st no noise? _And._ The Cooks are chopping herbs and mince-meat to make Pies, and breaking Marrow-bones-- _Char._ Can they set them again? _And._ Yes, yes, in Broths and Puddings, and they grow stronger for the use of any man. _Char._ What speaking's that? sure there's a Massacre. _And._ Of Pigs and Geese, Sir, and Turke
