e, confirme I pray.
_1_.
There be our hands againe.
_2_.
Now let him come, and say he was not sorry,
And he sleepes for it.
_Bes_.
Alas good ignorant old man, let him goe,
Let him goe, these courses will undoe him.
_Exeunt_.
_Enter Ligones, and Bacurius_.
_Bac_.
My Lord your authoritie is good, and I am glad it is so, for my
consent would never hinder you from seeing your owne King. I am a
Minister, but not a governour of this state; yonder is your King,
Ile leave you.
_Exit_.
_Lig_.
There he is indeed, _Enter Tig. and Spaco_.
And with him my disloyall childe.
_Tig_.
I doe perceive my fault so much, that yet
Me thinkes thou shouldst not have forgiven me.

Health to your Maiestie.
_Tig_.

O good Sir forgive me.
_Lig_.

_Spa_.
Should it be measur'd by my meane deserts,
Indeed you are not.
_Lig_.
Thou couldst prate unhappily
Ere thou couldst goe, would thou couldst doe as well.
And how does your custome hold out here. _Spa_. Sir.
_Lig_.
Are you in private still, or how?
_Spa_.
What doe you meane?
_Lig_.
Doe you take money? are you come to sell sinne yet? perhaps I can
helpe you to liberall Clients: or has not the King cast you off yet? O
thou wild creature, whose best commendation is, that thou art a young
Whore. I would thy Mother had liv'd to see this: or rather would I had
