my Lady Du Lake--the Lady Springwell--the Lady Hoyden. [_She and_ ISABELLA _salute them_. _Isa_. What a whiff was there came from my Lady Hoyden; and what a garlic breath my Lady Springwell had! _Trice_. Ha, ha, ha, ha! _Lov_. Do not betray me, Justice; if you do--[_Aside_. _Isa_. Oh, are you thereabouts, sir? then I smell a rat, i'faith; but I'll say nothing. [_Aside_. _Const_. Ladies, I am an humble servant to you all; and account it my happiness to have met with so good company at my cousin Trice's. _Trice_. Ha, ha, ha! _L. Du Lake_. Are these two ladies of your acquaintance, son Loveby? _Lov_. Son, quoth a'! a pox of our relation! [_Aside_. _L. Du Lake_. I shall be glad to be better known to your ladyships. _Const_. You too much honour your servants, madam. _Isa_. How Loveby fidges up and down! In what pain he is! well, if these be not they, they call whores, I'll be hanged, though I never saw one before. [_Aside_. _Lov_. Will your ladyship please to go, madam? _Const_. I must beg the favour of these ladies first, that I may know their lodgings, and wait on them. _L. Du. Lake_.

But in earnest, madam, I must have no denial; I beseech your ladyship instruct me, where I may tender my devoirs. _L. Du Lake_. Since your ladyship commands me, madam, I dare disobey no longer. My lodgings are in St Lucknor's Lane, at the Cat and Fiddle. _Const_. Whereabouts is that lane, servant? _Lov_. Faith, madam, I know not that part o'the town.--Lord, how I sweat for fear! [_Aside_. _Const_. And yours, madam, where, I beseech your ladyship? _2 Whore_. In Dog and Bitch yard, an't please your ladyship. _3 Whore_. And mine in Sodom, so like your ladyship. _Const_. How, Loveby! I did not think you would have used me thus? _Lov_. I beseech your ladyship, but hear my justification as I lead you. _Const_. By no means, sir; that were such a rudeness to leave persons of quality, to wait upon me: Unhand me, sir. _Isa_. Ha, ha, ha!--[_Exeunt_ CONST. ISA. _Lov_. I am ruined! for ever ruined.
