. _Hip._ You do it well too; You are a Master Sir, that makes you coy. _Arn._ Would you would send your people off. _Hip._ Well thought on. Wait all without. [_Exit_ Zab. _and Servants._ _Zab._ I hope she is pleas'd throughly. _Hip._ Why stand ye still? here's no man to detect ye, My people are gone off: come, come, leave conjuring, The Spirit you would raise, is here already, Look boldly on me. _Arn._ What would you have me do? _Hip._ O most unmanly question! have you do? Is't possible your years should want a Tutor? I'le teach ye: come, embrace me. _Arn._ Fye stand off; And give me leave, more now than e're, to wonder, A building of so goodly a proportion, Outwardly all exact, the frame of Heaven, Should hide within so base inhabitants? You are as fair, as if the morning bare ye, Imagination never made a sweeter; Can it be possible this frame should suffer, And built on slight affections, fright the viewer?

If ye imagine I am too free a Lover, And act that part belongs to you, I am silent: Mine eyes shall speak my blushes, parly with ye; I will not touch your hand, but with a tremble Fitting a Vestal Nun; not long to kiss ye, But gently as the Air, and undiscern'd too, I'le steal it thus: I'le walk your shadow by ye, So still and silent that it shall be equal, To put me off, as that, and when I covet, To give such toyes as these-- _Arn._ A new temptation-- _Hip._ Thus like the lazie minutes will I drop 'em, Which past once are forgotten. _Arn._ Excellent vice! _Hip._ Will ye be won? look stedfastly upon me, Look manly, take a mans affec
