Welford there: That Gentleman I mean to make the model of my Fortunes, and in his chast imbraces keep alive the memory of my lost lovely Loveless: he is somewhat like him too. (Elder Lo: Then you can love.) Yes certainly Sir? Though it please you to think me hard and cruel, I hope I shall perswade you otherwise.
