ia: Why am I cozen'd? Why am I abused? Michael Perez: Thou most vile, base, abominable-- Estifania: Captain. Michael Perez: Thou stinking, overstew'd, poor, pocky-- Estifania: Captain. Michael Perez: Do you echo me? Estifania: Yes Sir, and go before ye, And round about ye, why do you rail at me For that that was your own sin, your own knavery? Michael Perez: And brave me too? Estifania: You had best now draw your Sword, Captain! Draw it upon a Woman, do, brave Captain, Upon your Wife, Oh most renowned Captain. Michael Perez: A Plague upon thee, answer me directly; Why didst thou marry me? Estifania: To be my Husband; I had thought you had had infinite, but I'm cozen'd.

Michael Perez: A fire subtle ye, are ye so crafty? Estifania: Here's a goodly jewel, Did not you win this at Goletta, Captain, Or took it in the field from some brave _Bashaw_ How it sparkles like an old Ladies eyes, And fills each room with light like a close Lanthorn! This would do rarely in an Abbey Window, To cozen Pilgrims. Michael Perez: P[r]ithee leave prating. Estifania: And here's a Chain of Whitings eyes for pearls, A Muscle-mon
