l tell ye happily,
But happily you will not be instructed.
_Am_.
Yes, and thank ye too, shall I move this man?
_Lean_.
Those are unseemly: move one can serve ye,
Can honour ye, can love ye.
_Am_.
'Pray ye tell quickly,
He will return, and then.
_Lean_.
I'le tell ye instantly,
Move me, and I will move any way to serve ye,
Move your heart this way, Lady.
_Am_.
How?
_Lean_.
'Pray ye hear me.
Behold the sport of love, when he is imperious,
Behold the slave of love.
_Am_.
Move my Queen this way?

And thus, divine lips, where perpetual Spring grows--
_Am_.
Take that, ye are too saucy.
_Lean_.
How, proud Lady?
Strike my deserts?
_Am_.
I was to blame.
_Enter_
Bartolus.
_Bar_.
What wife, there?
Heaven keep my house from thieves.
_Lean_.
I am wretched:
Opened, discovered, lost to my wishes.
I shall be whooted at.
_Bar_.
What noise was this, wife?
Why dost thou smile?
_Lean_.
This proud thing will betray me.
_Bar_. Why these lie here? what angry, dear?
_Am_.
No, Sir,
Only a chance, your pupil said he plaid well,
And so indeed he do's: he undertook for ye,
