ardon, I kiss your vesture. DOL. Sir, I were uncivil If I would suffer that; my lip to you, sir. MAM. I hope my lord your brother be in health, lady. DOL. My lord, my brother is, though I no lady, sir. FACE [ASIDE]. Well said, my Guinea bird. MAM. Right noble madam-- FACE [ASIDE]. O, we shall have most fierce idolatry. MAM. 'Tis your prerogative. DOL. Rather your courtesy. MAM. Were there nought else to enlarge your virtues to me, These answers speak your breeding and your blood. DOL. Blood we boast none, sir, a poor baron's daughter. MAM. Poor! and gat you? profane not. Had your father Slept all the happy remnant of his life After that act, lien but there still, and panted, He had done enough to make himself, his issue, And his posterity noble. DOL.

To burn in this sweet flame; The phoenix never knew a nobler death. DOL. Nay, now you court the courtier, and destroy What you would build. This art, sir, in your words, Calls your whole faith in question. MAM. By my soul-- DOL. Nay, oaths are made of the same air, sir. MAM. Nature Never bestow'd upon mortality A more unblamed, a more harmonious feature; She play'd the step-dame in all faces else: Sweet Madam, let me be particular-- DOL. Particular, sir!
