male · sarcastic · 56 sec

Me thinks thou shouldst be drunk still, and not speak, 'tis the more pardonable. (Sav: I will Sir, if you will have it so.) I thank ye: yes, e'ne pursue it Sir: do you hear? get a Whore soon for your recreation: go look out Captain Broken-breech your fellow, and Quarrel if you dare: I shall deliver these Keys to one shall have more honesty, though not so much fine wit Sir. You may walk and gather Cresses fit to cool your Liver; there's something for you to begin a Diet, you'l have the Pox else. Speed you well, Sir Savil: you may eat at my house to preserve life; but keep no Fornication in the Stables. [ (Ex. om. pr.) Savil.
