[_Stands a little off_. _Enter_ Leticia _and_ Phillis _softly, undrest, with a Box_. _Let_. Where are you, my best Wishes? Lord of my Vows--and Charmer of my Soul? Where are you? _Bel_. Oh, Heavens!-- [_Draws his Sword half-way_. Sir _Feeb_. Hum, who's here? My Gentlewoman--she's monstrous kind of the sudden. But whom is't meant to? [_Aside_. _Let_. Give me your hand, my Love, my Life, my All--Alas! where are you? Sir _Feeb_. Hum--no, no, this is not to me--I am jilted, cozen'd, cuckolded, and so forth.-- [_Groping, she takes hold of Sir_ Feeb. _Let_. Oh, are you here? indeed you frighted me with your Silence--here, take these Jewels, and let us haste away. Sir _Feeb_. Hum--are you thereabouts, Mistress? was I sent away with a Sham-Plot for this!--She cannot mean it to me. [_Aside_. _Let_. Will you not speak?--will you not answer me?--do you repent already?--before Enjoyment are you cold and false? Sir _Feeb_. Hum, before Enjoyment--that must be me.

Sir _Feeble_!--he would not, Sir, have us'd me thus unkindly. Sir _Feeb_. Oh--I'm glad 'tis no worse--_Bellmour_, quoth a! I thought the Ghost was come again. _Phil_. Why did you not speak, Sir, all this while?--my Lady weeps with your Unkindness. Sir _Feeb_. I did but hold my peace, to hear how prettily she prattled Love: But, fags, you are naught to think of a young Fellow--ads bobs, you are now. _Let_. I only say--he wou'd not have been so unkind to me. Sir _Feeb_. But what makes ye out at this Hour, and with these Jewels? _Phil_. Alas, Sir, we thought the City was in Arms, and packt up our things to secure 'em, if there had been a necessity for Flight.
