would dye with laughter.
_Cler._ I am sorry I have no time to see this game out,
Away, away.
_Gent._ Here's like to be a hot fight,
Call when y'are fit. [_Ex._ Cler. _and Gent._
_La-writ._ Why look you Sir, you seem to be a Gentleman,
And you come in honour of your Uncle, boh, boh, 'tis very cold;
Your Uncle has offer'd me some few affronts,
Past flesh and blood to bear: boh, boh, wondrous cold.
_Sam._ My Lord, mine Uncle, is an honourable man,
And what he offers, boh, boh, cold indeed,
Having made choice of me, an unworthy kinsman,
Yet take me with you: boh, boh, pestilence cold,
Not altogether.
_La-writ._ Boh, boh, I say altogether.
_Sam._ You say you know not what then? boh, boh, Sir.
_La-writ._ Sir me with your sword in your hand;
You have a scurvy Uncle, you have a most scurvy cause,
And you are--boh, boh.
_Sam._ Boh, boh, what?
_La-writ._ A shitten scurvy Cousin.
_Samp._ Our Swords; our Swords;
Thou art a Dog, and like a Dog, our Swords.
_La-w._ Our weapons Gentlemen: ha? where's your second?
_Sam._ Where's yours?
_La-writ._ So ho; our weapons.
_Sam._ Wa, ha, ho, our weapons;
Our Doublets and our weapons, I am dead.
_La-w._ First, second, third, a pl---- be wi' you Gentlemen.
_Sam._ Are these the rules of honour? I am starv'd.
_La-w._ They are gone, and we are here; what shall we do?
_Sam._ O for a couple of Faggots.
_La-w._ Hang a couple of Faggots.
Dar'st thou take a killing cold with me?
_Sam._ I have it already.
_La-w._ Rogues, Thieves, boh, boh, run away with our Doublets?
To fight at Buffets now, 'twere such a May-game.
_Sam._ There were no honour in't, pl---- on't, 'tis scurvy.
_La-w._ Or to revenge my wrongs at fisty-cuffes.
_Sam._ My Lord, mine Uncles cause, depend on Boxes?
_La-w._ Let's go in quest, if we ever recover 'em.
_Sam._ I, come, our Colds together, and our Doublets.
_La-w._ Give me thy hand; thou art a valiant Gentleman,
I say if ever we recover 'em--
_Sam._ Let's get into a house and warm our hearts.
_La-w._ There's ne're a house within this mile, beat me,
Kick me and beat me as I go, and I'le beat thee too,
To keep us warm; if ever we recover 'em--
Kick hard, I am frozen: so, so, now I feel it.
_Sam._ I am dull yet.
_La-w._ I'le warm thee, I'le warm thee--Gentlemen?
Rogues, Thieves, Thieves: run now I'le follow thee. [_Exeunt._
_Enter_ Vertaign, Champernel, Beaupre, Verdone, Lamira,
Anna
