tears falling on your pure Crystals, should turn to armelets for great Queens t'adore. _Ang_. I must be gone. _Char_. Do not, I will not hurt ye; this is to let you know, my worthiest Lady, y'have clear'd my mind, and I can speak of love too: Fear not my manners, though I never knew, before these few hours, what a Beauty was, and such a one that fires all hearts that feel it; yet I have read of virtuous Temperance, and study'd it among my other Secrets; and sooner would I force a separation betwixt this spirit and the case of flesh, than but conceive one rudeness against Chastity. _Ang_. Then we may walk. _Char_. And talk of any thing, any fit for your ears, and my language; though I was bred up dull, I was ever civil; 'tis true, I have found it hard to look on you, and not desire, 'twill prove a wise mans task; yet those desires I have so mingled still, and tempered with the quality of honour, that if you should yield, I should hate you for't.

To bed, and pray then, we may have a fair end of our fair loves; would I were worthy of you, or of such parents that might give you thanks: But I am poor in all but in your love. Once more, good night. _Char_. A good night t'ye, and may the dew of sleep fall gently on you, sweet one, and lock up those fair lights in pleasing slumbers; no dreams but chaste and clear attempt your fancy, and break betimes sweet morn, I've lost my light else. _Ang_. Let it be ever night when I lose you. _Syl_. This Scholar never went to a Free-School, he's so simple. _Enter a_ Servant. _Serv_. Your Brother, with two Gallants, is at door, Sir, and they're so violent, they'll take no denial. _Ang_. This is no fit time of
