h the seeing, Sir, Now you are come, you ask if she were a Woman? She is a Woman, Sir, fetch her forth _Marget_. [_Exit_ Marg. And a fine Woman, and has Suitors. _Hem_. How? What Suitors are they? _Van_. Bachellors; young Burgers: And one, a Gallant, the young Prince of Merchants We call him here in _Bruges_. _Hem_. How? a Merchant? I thought, _Vandunke_, you had understood me better, And my Niece too, so trusted to you by me, Than t'admit of such in name of Suitors. _Van_. Such? he is such a such, as were she mine I'd give him thirty thousand crowns with her. _Hem_. But the same things, Sir, fit not you and me. [_Ex_. _Van_. Why, give's some wine, then; this will fit us all: Here's to you still, my Captains friend: All out: And still, would _Wolfort_ were an honest man, Under the Rose, I speak it: but this Merchant Is a brave boy: he lives so, i'the Town here, We know not what to think on him: at some times We fear he will be Bankrupt; he do's stretch Tenter his credit so; embraces all, And to't, the winds have been contrary long.

What is that you say, Sir? If it be me you speak of, as your eye Seems to direct, I wish you would speak to me, Sir. _Hem_. Sir, I do say, she is no Merchandize, Will that suffice you? _Gos_. Merchandize good Sir? Though ye be Kinsman to her, take no leave thence To use me with contempt: I ever thought Your Niece above all price. _Hem_. And do so still, Sir, I assure you, her rates are more than you are worth. _Gos_. You do not know, what a Gentleman's worth, Sir, Nor can you value him. _H[u]b_. Well said Merchant. _Van_.
