one's a Knight, and I believe his Courage is cool'd, for he has ferreted my Maids over and over to Night--But 'tis the fine, young, handsom Squire that I design you for. _Flaunt_. No matter for his Handsomness, let me have him that has most Money. [_Exeunt_. SCENE III. _Another Chamber in the Brothel, a Table with Box and Dice_. _Enter_ Bellmour, _Sir_ Timothy, Sham _and_ Sharp. _Bel_. Damn it, give us more Wine. [_Drinks_. Where stands the Box and Dice?--Why, _Sham_. _Sham_. Faith, Sir, Your Luck's so bad, I han't the Conscience to play longer--Sir _Timothy_ and you play off a hundred Guineas, and see if Luck will turn. _Bel_. Do you take me for a Country Squire, whose Reputation will be crackt at the loss of a petty Thousand? You have my Note for it to my Goldsmith. _Sham_. 'Tis sufficient if it were for ten thousand. _Bel_. Why, Sir _Timothy_--Pox on't, thou'rt dull, we are not half debauch'd and leud enough, give us more Wine. Sir _Tim_. Faith, _Frank_, I'm a little maukish with sitting up all Night, and want a small refreshment this Morning--Did we not send for Whores? _Bel_. No, I am not in humour for a Wench-- By Heaven, I hate the Sex. All but divine _Celinda_, Appear strange Monsters to my Eyes and Thoughts. Sir _Tim_. What, art Italianiz'd, and lovest thy own Sex? _Bel_. I'm for any thing that's out of the common Road of Sin; I love a Man that will be damn'd for something: to creep by slow degrees to Hell, as if he were afraid the World shou'd see which way he went, I scorn it, 'tis like a Conventicler--No, give me a Man, who to be certain of's Damnation, will break a solemn Vow to a contracted Maid. Sir _Tim_. Ha, ha, ha, I thought thou would'st have said at least--had murder'd his Father, or ravish'd his Mother--Break a Vow, quoth ye--by Fortune, I have broke a thousand. _Bel_. Well said, my Boy! A Man of Honour! And will be ready whene'er the Devil calls for thee--So--ho--more Wine, more Wine, and Dice. _Enter a Servant with Dice and Wine_. Come, Sir, let me-- [_Throws and loses_. Sir _Tim_. What will you set me, Sir? _Bel_. Cater-tray--a hundred Guineas--oh, damn the Dice--'tis mine--come, a full Glass--Damnation to my Uncle. Sir _Tim_. By Fortune, I'll do thee reason--give me the Glass, and, _Sham_, to thee--Confusion to the musty Lord. _Bel_. So--now I'm like my self, profanely wicked.
