reasons have As well drawn drops of blood from my griev'd heart, As these tears from mine eyes; Despise them not. By all that's sacred, I am serious, _Hubert_, You now have made me sensible, what furies, Whips, Hangmen, and Tormentors a bad man Do's ever bear about him: let the good That you this day have done, be ever number'd The first of your best actions; Can you think, Where _Goswin_ is or _Gerrard_, or your love, Or any else, or all that are proscrib'd? I will resign, what I usurp, or have Unjustly forc'd; the dayes I have to live Are too too few to make them satisfaction With any penitence: yet I vow to practise All of a man. _Hub_.

But short of what I could, yet have the Country Confirm'd it true, and by a general oath, And not a man hazard his credit in it: He bears himself with such a confidence As if he were the Master of the Sea, And not a wind upon the Sailers compass, But from one part or other was his factor, To bring him in the best commodities, Merchant e're ventur'd for. 1. 'Tis strange. 2. And yet This do's in him deserve the least of wonder, Compared with other his peculiar fashions, Which all admire: he's young, and rich, at least Thus far reputed so, that since he liv'd In _Bruges_, there was never brought to harbour So rich a Bottom, but his bill would pass Unquestion'd for her lading. 3 _Mer._ Yet he still Continues a good man. 2 _Mer._ So good, t
