back. _Belv._ I am content to try, and by that time 'twill be late enough for our Design. _Will._ Agreed. _Love does all day the Soul's great Empire keep, But Wine at night lulls the soft God asleep._ [Exeunt. SCENE II. __Lucetta's_ House._ Enter _Blunt_ and _Lucetta_ with a Light. _Luc._ Now we are safe and free, no fears of the coming home of my old jealous Husband, which made me a little thoughtful when you came in first-- but now Love is all the business of my Soul. _Blunt._ I am transported-- Pox on't, that I had but some fine things to say to her, such as Lovers use-- I was a Fool not to learn of _Fred_, a little by Heart before I came-- something I must say.-- [_Aside._] 'Sheartlikins, sweet Soul, I am not us'd to complement, but I'm an honest Gentleman, and thy humble Servant. _Luc._ I have nothing to pay for so great a Favour, but such a Love as cannot but be great, since at first sight of that sweet Face and Shape it made me your absolute Captive. _Blunt._ Kind heart, how prettily she talks!

Enter _Sancho_. _Sancho._ Sir, my Lady has sent me to conduct you to her Chamber. _Blunt._ Sir, I shall be proud to follow-- Here's one of her Servants too: 'dsheartlikins, by his Garb and Gravity he might be a Justice of Peace in _Essex_, and is but a Pimp here.
