Here's my Lady Rawford's page attends to speak with your ladyship. ROB. I pray ye bid her lordship's page come into my Ladyship. [_Exit_. SERVINGMAN.] Well, Robin Hood, part with these petticoats, And cast these loose devices from thy back, I'll ne'er go more untruss'd, never be kerchief'd, Never have this ado with _what do you lack_? _Enter_ PAGE. PAGE. Madam, my lady greets your honour kindly, And sends you the first grapes of her young vine. ROB. I am much indebted to her honour, there's an angel for you to drink; set them up till after supper. Humphrey, pray look about for Block. Humphrey! trust me, I think the fool be lost. PAGE. No, forsooth, madam, he's upon the green, jesting with a stammerer, one Redcap. ROB. It is a lewd fellow; pray, bid him come in, youth; I'll give him his welcome at the door. Commend me to your lady, I pray ye, heartily. [_Exit_ PAGE. Humphrey, I marvel where Sir Richard is so late! Truly, truly, he does not as beseems a gentleman of his calling; pray, let some go forth to meet him on the green, and send in that blockhead Block. [_Exit_ HUMPHREY. _Enter_ REDCAP, _and_ BLOCK _after him_. BLO. Will ye tell tales, ye ass, will ye? RED. I'll te-te-tell your la-la-lady, or I would to G-God we were ha-hang'd else, as my fa-father should have been. ROB. Now, what's the matter there, I pray you? What company have you there, a-God's name? where spend you the day, I pray? BLO. Why, where you gave me leave; at the gallows I was--no farther. RED. A-a-and you be his la-lady, you are the La-Lady Fau-Fauconbridge, the Earl of Glo-Gloster's sister. ROB. I am so, fellow. RED. Y-y-your man B-B-Blocke here does no--nothing but f-f-flout m-me, a-and cr-cries _r-run Re-Redcap and s-s-see you f-f-father ha-ha-hang'd_. I sh-shall g-go-near to m-make m-murder, and he u-use it. ROB. Well, sirrah, leave your mocking, you were best, I'll bob your beetle head, and if you mock him. BLO. He's _run Redcap_. RED. La-la-law, ma-madam. ROB. Away, ye saucy fool; go, wait within. BLO. _Run, Redcap; run, Redcap_. [_Exit_. ROB. Art thou the porter's son, that was condemned about my brother Gloster? RED. Ay, G-G-God be with you, I am the p-p-porter's son, I m-must r-run to s-s-seek your b-br-brother. ROB. Wel
