ry like her. _And._ She has a wide face then. _Char._ She has a Cherubin's, cover'd and vail'd with modest blushes. _Eustace_, be happy, whiles poor _Charles_ is patient. Get me my Books again, and come in with me-- [_Exeunt._ _Enter_ Brisac, Eustace, Egremont, Cowsy, Miramont. _Bri._ Welcome, sweet Daughter; welcome, noble Brother; and you are welcome, Sir, with all your Writings; Ladys, most welcome: What, my angry Brother! you must be welcome too, the Feast is flat else. _Mir._ I am not come for your welcome, I expect none; I bring no joys to bless the bed withall; nor Songs, nor Masques to glorifie the Nuptials; I bring an angry mind to see your folly, a sharp one too, to reprehend you for it. _Bri._ You'll stay and dine though. _Mir._ All your meat smells musty, your Table will shew nothing to content me. _Bri._ I'le answer you here's good meat. _Mir._ But your sauce is scurvie, it is not season'd with the sharpness of discretion. _Eust._ It seems your anger is at me, dear Uncle. _Mir._ Thou art not worth my anger, th'art a Boy, a lump o'thy Father's lightness, made of nothing but antick cloathes and cringes; look in thy head, and 'twill appear a foot-ball full of fumes and rotten smoke.
