could find in my hose to pocket thee in my heart!
Come, my heart of gold, let's have a dance at the making up of this
match. Strike up, Tom Piper. [_They dance_.
Come, Peg, I'll take the pains to bring thee homeward; and at twilight
look for me again.
[_Exeunt_.

_Enter_ ROBIN GOODFELLOW _and_ PETER PLOD-ALL.

ROBIN GOODFELLOW.
Come hither, my honest friend. Master Churms told me you had a suit to
me; what's the matter?

PETER PLOD-ALL.
Pray ye, sir, is your name Robin Goodfellow?

ROBIN GOODFELLOW.
My name is Robin Goodfellow.

PETER PLOD-ALL.
Marry, sir, I hear you're a very cunning man, sir, and sir reverence of
your worship, sir, I am going a-wooing to one Mistress Lelia, a
gentlewoman here hard by. Pray ye, sir, tell me how I should behave
myself, to get her to my wife, for, sir, there is a scholar about her;
now, if you can tell me how I should wipe his nose of her, I would
bestow a fee of you.

ROBIN GOODFELLOW.
Let me see't, and thou shalt see what I'll say to thee. [_He gives him
money_.] Well, follow my counsel, and, I'll warrant thee, I'll give thee
a love-powder for thy wench, and a kind of _nux vomica_ in a potion
shall make her come off, i' faith.

PETER PLOD-ALL.
Shall I trouble you so far as to take some pains with me? I am loth to
have the dodge.

ROBIN GOODFELLOW.
Tush! fear not the dodge. I'll rather put on my flashing red nose and my
flaming face, and come wrapped in a calf's skin, and cry _Bo bo_. I'll
fray the scholar, I warrant thee. But first go to her, try what thou
canst do; perhaps she'll love thee without any further ado. But thou
must tell her thou hast a good stock, some hundred or two a year, and
that will set her hard, I warrant thee; for, by the mass, I was once in
good comfort to have cosened a wench, and wott'st thou what I told her?
I told her I had a hundred pound land a year in a place, where I have
not the breadth of my little finger. I promised her to enfeoff her in
forty pounds a year of it, and I think of my conscience, if I had had
but as good a face as thine, I should have made her have cursed the time
that ever she see it. And thus thou must do: crack and lie, and face,
and thou shalt triumph mightily.

PETER PLOD-ALL.
I need not do so, for I may say, and say true, I have lands and living
enough for a country fellow.

ROBIN GOODFELLOW.
By'r Lady, so had not I. I was fain to overreach, as many times I do;
but now experience hat
