I'le watch you for that Mistris: I am no fool, here will I tarry till the house be up and witness with me. (Mar: Good dear friend goe in.) To bed again if you please, else I am fixt here till there be notice taken what I am, and what I have done: if you could juggle me into my woman-hood again, and so cog me out of your company, all this would be forsworn, and I again an asinego, as your Sister left me. No, I'le have it known and publisht; then if you'le be a whore, forsake me and be asham'd: and when you can hold no longer, marry some cast Cleve Captain, and sell Bottle-ale. (Mar: I dare not stay Sir, use me modestly, I am your wife.) Goe in, I'le make up all.
