o you know the Man you speak of?-- _Hell._ Yes, Madam, he us'd to be in Buff and Scarlet. _Ang._ Thou, false as Hell, what canst thou say to this? [To _Will._ _Will._ By Heaven-- _Ang._ Hold, do not damn thy self-- _Hell._ Nor hope to be believ'd. [He walks about, they follow. _Ang._ Oh, perjur'd Man! Is't thus you pay my generous Passion back? _Hell._ Why wou'd you, Sir, abuse my Lady's Faith? _Ang._ And use me so inhumanly? _Hell._ A Maid so young, so innocent-- _Will._ Ah, young Devil! _Ang._ Dost thou not know thy Life is in my Power? _Hell._ Or think my Lady cannot be reveng'd? _Will._ So, so, the Storm comes finely on.

[Walks away. _Will._ So, you have made sweet work here, my little mischief; Look your Lady be kind and good-natur'd now, or I shall have but a cursed Bargain on't. [_Ang._ turns towards them. --The Rogue's bred up to Mischief, Art thou so great a Fool to credit him? _Ang._ Yes, I do; and you in vain impose upon me. --Come hither, Boy-- Is not this he you speak of? _Hell._ I think-- it is; I cannot swear, but I vow he has just such another lying Lover's look. [_Hell._ looks in his Face, he gazes on her. _Will._ Hah! do not I know that Face?-- By Heaven, my little Gipsy! what a dull Dog was I? Had I but lookt that way, I'd known
