et. _Enter 2 Gentlemen._ _1 Gent_. How now, how does he? _Leo_. Nay, if I tell ye, hang me, or any man else That hath his nineteen wits; he has the bots I think, He groans, and roars, and kicks. _2 Gent_. Will he speak yet? _Leo_. Not willingly: Shortly he will not see a man; if ever I look'd upon a Prince so metamorphos'd, So juggl'd into I know not what, shame take me; This 'tis to be in love. _1 Gent_. Is that the cause on't? _Leo_. What is it not the cause of but bear-baitings? And yet it stinks much like it: out upon't; What giants, and what dwarffs, what owls and apes, What dogs, and cats it makes us? men that are possest with it, Live as if they had a Legion of Devils in 'em, And every Devil of a several nature; Nothing but Hey-pass, re-pass: where's the _Lieutenant_? Has he gather'd up the end on's wits again? _1 Gent_. He is alive: but you that talk of wonders, Shew me but such a wonder as he is now. _Leo_. Why? he was ever at the worst a wonder. _2 Gent_. He is now most wonderful; a Blazer now, Sir. _Leo_. What ails the Fool? and what Star reigns now Gentlemen We have such Prodigies? _2 Gent_.

He's going thither, Makes prayers for the King, in sundry languages, Turns all his Proclamations into metre; Is really in love with the King, most dotingly, And swears _Adonis_ was a Devil to him: A sweet King, a most comely King, and such a King-- _2 Gent_. Then down on's marrow-bones; O excellent King Thus he begins, Thou Light, and Life of Creatures, Angel-ey'd King, vouchsafe at length thy favour; And so proceeds to incision: what think ye of this sorrow? _1 Gent_. Will as familiarly kiss the King['s] horses As they pass by him: ready to ravish his footman. _Leo_. Why, this is above Ela? But how comes this? _1 Gent_. Nay that's to understand yet, But thus it is, and this part but the poorest, 'Twould make a man leap over the Moon to see him act these. _2 Gent_. With sighs as though his heart would break: Cry like a breech'd boy, not eat a bit. _Leo_. I must go see him presently, For this is such a gig, for certain, Gentlemen, The Fiend rides on a Fiddle-stick. _2 Gent_. I
