et a warm desire In Souls, whom Impotence and Age had chill'd. --This must along with me. _Brav._ What means this rudeness, Sir?-- restore the Picture. _Ant._ Ha! Rudeness committed to the fair _Angelica_!-- Restore the Picture, Sir. _Will._ Indeed I will not, Sir. _Ant._ By Heav'n but you shall. _Will._ Nay, do not shew your Sword; if you do, by this dear Beauty-- I will shew mine too. _Ant._ What right can you pretend to't? _Will._ That of Possession which I will maintain-- you perhaps have 1000 Crowns to give for the Original. _Ant._ No matter, Sir, you shall restore the Picture. _Ang._ Oh, _Moretta_! what's the matter? [_Ang._ and _Moret._ above. _Ant._ Or leave your Life behind. _Will._ Death! you lye-- I will do neither. _Ang._ Hold, I command you, if for me you fight. [They fight, the Spaniards join with _Antonio_, _Blunt_ laying on like mad. They leave off and bow. _Will._ How heavenly fair she is!-- ah Plague of her Price. _Ang._ You Sir in Buff, you that appear a Soldier, that first began this Insolence. _Will._ 'Tis true, I did so, if you call it Insolence for a Man to preserve himself; I saw your charming Picture, and was wounded: quite thro my Soul each pointed Beauty ran; and wanting a Thousand Crowns to procure my Remedy, I laid this little Picture to my Bosom-- which if you cannot allow me, I'll resign. _Ang._ No, you may keep the Trifle. _Ant._ You shall first ask my leave, and this. [Fight again as before. Enter _Belv._ and _Fred._ who join with the English. _Ang._ Hold; will you ruin me?-- _Biskey_, _Sebastian_, part them. [The _Spaniards_ are beaten off. _Moret._ Oh Madam, we're undone, a pox upon that rude Fellow, he's set on to ruin us: we shall never see good days, till all these fighting poor Rogues are sent to the Gallies. Enter _Belvile_, _Blunt_ and _Willmore_, with his shirt bloody. _Blunt._ 'Sheartlikins, beat me at this Sport, and I'll ne'er wear Sword more. _Belv._ The Devil's in thee for a mad Fellow, thou art always one at an unlucky Adventure.-- Come, let's be gone whilst we're safe, and remember these are _Spaniards_, a sort of People that know how to revenge an Affront. _Fred._ You bleed; I hope you are not wounded. [To _Will._ _Will._ Not much:-- a plague upon your Dons, if they fight no better they'll ne'er recover _Flanders_.-- What the Devil was't to them that I took down the Picture?
