outworn the expectation of a Baud; and thy dry bones can reach at nothing now, but gords or ninepins, pray goe fetch a trencher goe. _Lady_. Let him alone, he's crack't. _Abig_. I'le see him hang'd first, is a beastly fellow to use a woman of my breeding thus; I marry is he: would I were a man, I'de make him eat his Knaves words! _Elder Lo_. Tie your she Otter up, good Lady folly, she stinks worse than a Bear-baiting. _Lady_. Why will you be angry now? _Elder Lo_. Goe paint and purge, call in your kennel with you: you a Lady? _Abi_. Sirra, look to't against the quarter Sessions, if there be good behaviour in the world, I'le have thee bound to it. _Elder Lo_. You must not seek it in your Ladies house then; pray send this Ferret home, and spin good _Abigal_. And Madam, that your Ladiship may know, in what base manner you have us'd my service, I do from this hour hate thee heartily; and though your folly should whip you to repentance, and waken you at length to see my wrongs, 'tis not the endeavour of your life shall win me; not all the friends you have, intercession, nor your submissive letters, though they spoke as many tears as words; not your knees grown to th' ground in penitence, nor all your state, to kiss you; nor my pardon, nor will to give you Christian burial, if you dye thus; so farewell.

I know you will recant and sue to me, but save that labour: I'le rather love a fever and continual thirst, rather contract my youth to drink and sacerdote upon quarrels, or take a drawn whore from an Hospital, that time, diseases, and _Mercury_ had eaten, than to be drawn to love you. _Lady_. Ha, ha, ha, pray do, but take heed though. _Elder Lo_. From thee, false dice, jades, Cowards, and plaguy Summers, good Lord deliver me. [_Exit_ Elder Love. _Lady_. But hark you Servant, hark ye: is he gon? call him again. _Abigal_. Hang him Paddock. _Lady_. Art thou here still? flie, flie, and call my Servant, flie or ne'r see me more. _Abigal_. I had rather knit again than see that rascall, but I must doe it. [_Exit_ Abigal. _Lady_. I would be loth to anger him too much; what fine foolery is this in a woman, to use those men most forwardly they love most? If I should lose him thus, I were rightly served. I hope he's not
