e, I will.
_Flaunt_. Come, what will you give me then to be Friends? for you won
Money last Night.
Sir _Tim_. Ay, that's it that appeases her highest Storms--here, my
Jewel, here's a hundred Guineas to buy thee fine things.
_Flaunt_. Yes, great store of fine things indeed, with this pitiful Sum;
let me feel in your Pockets, and see if you have no more.
[_She feels in his Pockets_.
Sir _Tim_. So, 'twas well I laid by the rest, my Peace had not been
Made under every Rag on't else; and what I was painfully cheating for
All this Night, would have been laid out at the Mercers and Lacemans
in half an Hour.
--Well, are you satisfy'd I have no more?
_Flaunt_. Have you sunk none indeed and indeed, my _Timmy?_
Sir _Tim_. No, I need not, you sink mine fast enough, I thank ye.
[_Aside_.
_Flaunt_. Well, get your self ready to go abroad with me.
[_Exit_ Flaunt.
Sir _Tim_. I have other Matters in hand--now have I four hundred

avaricious _Judas_, that will betray for Gold.
Sir _Tim_. And that we'll furnish him with--his Master's Gold, like all
other mortal things, must return from whence it came.
_Sharp_. Not all, Sir; for _Sham_ and I have dispos'd of part.
Sir _Tim_. Indeed you are a little shabby.
_Sham_. Ay, Sir, Fools were made to repair the Breaches of us that have
Wit enough to manage 'em.
Sir _Tim_. What--the Goldsmith paid the Money at sight, without
demanding why?
_Sharp_. Readily, Sir--he's a brave Fellow, and must not be lost so.
_Sham_. By no means, we must make use of him whilst he is hot; for I
doubt the Humour is not natural, and I fear he may cool.
Sir _Tim_. But to our Business.
_Sharp_. Ay, Sir, this same Sister of his you must have;
if it be but to put this insolent Whore _Flauntit_ out of favour, who
manages this Fop intirely. [_Aside_.
Sir _Tim_. Ay, but art thou sure there is no danger in this Enterprize?
