Claim good. _Beau._ She's mine, by Bargain mine, and that's sufficient. _Will._ In Law perhaps, it may for ought I know, but 'tis not so in Love: but thou'rt my Friend, and I'll therefore give thee fair Play-- if thou canst win her take her: But a Sword and a Mistress are not to be lost, if a Man can keep 'em. _Beau._ I cannot blame thee, thou but acts thy self-- But thou fair Hypocrite, to whom I gave my Heart, And this exception made of all Mankind, Why would'st thou, as in Malice to my Love, Give it the only Wound that cou'd destroy it? _Will._ Nay, if thou didst forbid her loving me, I have her sure. _Beau._ I yield him many Charms; he's nobly born, Has Wit, Youth, Courage, all that takes the Heart, And only wants what pleases Women's Vanity, Estate, the only good that I can boast: And that I sacrifice to buy thy Smiles. _La Nu._ See, Sir-- here's a much fairer Chapman-- you may be gone-- [To _Will._ _Will._ Faith, and so there is, Child, for me, I carry all about me, and that by Heaven is thine: I'll settle all upon thee, but my Sword, and that will buy us Bread.
