d of flesh,
Would it might never write good court-hand more,
If I discover. What do you think of me,
That I am a chiaus?
FACE. What's that?
DAP. The Turk was here.
As one would say, do you think I am a Turk?
FACE. I'll tell the doctor so.
DAP. Do, good sweet captain.
FACE. Come, noble doctor, pray thee let's prevail;
This is the gentleman, and he is no chiaus.
SUB. Captain, I have return'd you all my answer.
I would do much, sir, for your love--But this
I neither may, nor can.
FACE. Tut, do not say so.
You deal now with a noble fellow, doctor,
One that will thank you richly; and he is no chiaus:
Let that, sir, move you.
SUB. Pray you, forbear--
FACE. He has
Four angels here.
SUB. You do me wrong, good sir.
FACE. Doctor, wherein? to tempt you with these spirits?
SUB. To tempt my art and love, sir, to my peril.
Fore heaven, I scarce can think you are my friend,

And spit out secrets like hot custard--

FACE. Nor any melancholic under-scribe,
Shall tell the vicar; but a special gentle,
That is the heir to forty marks a year,
Consorts with the small poets of the time,
Is the sole hope of his old grandmother;
That knows the law, and writes you six fair hands,
Is a fine clerk, and has his cyphering perfect.
Will take his oath o' the Greek Testament,
If need be, in his pocket; and can court
His mistress out of Ovid.
DAP. Nay, dear captain--
FACE. Did you not tell me so?
DAP. Yes; but I'd have you
Use master doctor with some more respect.
FACE. Hang him, proud stag, with his broad velvet head!--
But for your sake, I'd choak, ere I would change
An article of breath with such a puckfist:
Come, let's be gone.
[GOING.]
SUB. Pray you let me speak with you.
DAP. His worship calls you, captain.
FACE. I am sorry
I e'er embark'd myself in such a business.
DAP. Nay, good sir; he did call you.
FACE. Will he take then?
SUB. First, hear me--
FACE. Not a syllable, 'le
