Indeed I will do nothing, Nor touch nor hurt you Lady, nor had ever Such a lewd purpose. (Lam: Can there be such goodness, And in a man so injur'd?) Be confirm'd in't. I seal it thus: I must confess you vex'd me, In fooling me so often, and those fears You threw upon me call'd for a requital, Which now I have return'd, all unchast love Dinant thus throws away; live to man-kind, As you have done to me, and I will honour Your vertue, and no more think of your beauty. (Lam: All I possess, comes short of satisfaction.) No complements: the terrours of this night Imagine but a fearfull dream, and so With ease forget it: for Dinant, that labour'd To blast your honour, is a Champion for it, And will protect and guard it.
