_Abi._ O' my credit I swear, I think 'twas made for me:
Fear no other Suitors.
_Elder Love._ I shall not need to teach you how to discredit their
beginning, you know how to take exception at their shirts at washing, or
to make the maids swear they found plasters in their beds.
_Abi._ I know, I know, and do not you fear the Suitors.
_Elder Lo._ Farewell, be mindfull, and be happie; the night calls me.
[_Exeunt omnes praeter Younglove._
_Abi._ The Gods of the Winds befriend you Sir; a constant and a liberal
Lover thou art, more such God send us.
_Enter_ Welford.
_Wel._ Let'em not stand still, we have rid.
_Abi._ A suitor I know by his riding hard, I'le not be seen.
_Wel._ A prettie Hall this, no Servant in't? I would look freshly.
_Abi._ You have delivered your errand to me then: there's no danger in a
hansome young fellow: I'le shew my self.
_Wel._ Lady, may it please you to bestow upon a stranger the ordinary
grace of salutation: Are you the Lady of this house?
_Abi._ Sir, I am worthily proud to be a Servant of hers.
_Wel._ Lady, I should be as proud to be a Servant of yours, did not my so
late acquaintance make me despair.
_Abi._ Sir, it is not so hard to atchieve, but nature may bring it about.
