_Serv._ _Myn heer Haunce van Ezel_, Sir. _Hau._ Ha, ha, ha, well guest, i'faith now. _Glo._ Why how should they guess otherwise, coming so attended with Musick, as prepar'd for a Wedding? _Hau._ Ha, ha, ha, say'st thou so? faith, 'tis a good Device to save the Charges of the first Compliments, hah: but hark ye, hark ye, Friend, are you sure this is the House of Don _Carlo_? _Serv._ Why, Sir, have you forgot it? _Hau._ Forgot it! ha, ha, ha, dost hear, _Gload_? forgot it! why how the Devil should I remember it? _Glo._ Sir, I believe this is some new-fashion'd Civility in Spain, to know every Man before he sees him. _Hau._ No, no, you fool, they never change their Fashion in Spain, Man. _Glo._ I mean their manner of Address, Sir. _Hau._ It may be so, I'll see farther.
