Michael Perez:

Well.

Estifania:

That little stuff we'l use shall follow after;
And a boy to guide ye, peace and we are made both.

Margarita:

Come, let's goe in, are all the rooms kept sweet wench?

Estifania:

They are sweet and neat.
[Exit _Perez_.

Margarita:

Why where's your Husband?

Estifania:

Gone Madam.
When you come to your own he must give place Lady.

Margarita:

Well, send you joy, you would not let me know't,
Yet I shall not forget ye.

Estifania:

Thank your Ladyship.

Brought up under a hard Mother-in-law, a cruel,
Who being not us'd to break-fasts and collations,
When they have course bread offer'd 'em, are thankfull,
And take it for a favour too. Are the rooms

Altea:

'Tis up and ready.

Margarita:

Altea:
