Deliver'd me in nature of your trust.

Kit.
It is too much; these ceremonies need not:
I know thy faith to be as firm as rock.
Thomas, come hither, near; we cannot be
Too private in this business. So it is,---
Now he has sworn, I dare the safelier venture. [Aside.
I have of late, by divers observations---
But whether his oath can bind him, yea, or no,
Being not taken lawfully? ha! say you?
I will ask council ere I do proceed:---- [Aside.
Thomas, it will be now too long to stay,
I'll spy some fitter time soon, or to-morrow.
