d wept,
and at last pretty good friends again, and so I to my office, and
there late, and so home to supper with her, and so to bed, where after
half-an-hour's slumber she wakes me and cries out that she should never
sleep more, and so kept raving till past midnight, that made me cry
and weep heartily all the while for her, and troubled for what
she reproached me with as before, and at last with new vows, and
particularly that I would myself bid the girle be gone, and shew
my dislike to her, which I will endeavour to perform, but with much
trouble, and so this appeasing her, we to sleep as well as we could till
