, sudden and unexpected.

_Car._ Pray, how long have you been landed?

_Alon._ So, now shall I be plagu'd with nothing but wise Questions, to
which I am able to make no Answer. [Aside.] Sir, it is your Daughter
that I desire to see impatiently.

_Car._ Have you no Letters from my very good Friend your Father?

_Alon._ What if I have not? cannot I be admitted to your Daughter
without a Pass?

_Car._ O lack, Sir--

_Alon._ But to let you see I come with full Power (tho I am old enough
to recommend my self) here is my Commission for what I do.
[Gives him Letters.

_Car._ I remember amongst his other Faults, my Son writ me word he had
Courage: If so, I shall consider what to do. [Reads.] Sir, I find by
these your Father's Letters, you are not yet arriv'd.

_Alon._ I know that, Sir, but I was told I should express my Love in my
haste; therefore outsailing the Pacquet, I was the welcome Messenger my
self; and since I am so forward, I beseech you, Sir--
[_Carlo_ coming to imbrace him.

in these Affairs is but to prolong time, as the wise Man says.

_Alon._ You are much in the right, Sir. But my Wife, I desire to be
better acquainted with her.

_Car._ She shall be forth-coming, Sir. Had you a good Passage? for the
Seas and Winds regard no Man's necessity.

_Alon._ No, no, a very ill one; your Daughter, Sir.

_Car._ Pray, how long were you at Sea?

_Alon._ _Euphemia_, Sir, _Euphemia_, your Daughter. This Don's fuller of
Questions than of Proverbs, and that's a Wonder.
[Aside.

_Car._ They say _Flanders_ is a very fine Country, I never saw it; but--

_Alon._ Nor 'tis no matter, Sir, if you never do, so I saw your
Daughter. He'll catechize me home to my _Dutch_ Parents by and by,
of which I can give him no more account than--
[Aside.

_Car._ Are they as dissatisfied with their new Governour, as they were
with Don _John_? for they love change.

_Alon._ A Pox of their Government, I tell you I love your Daughter.

_Car._ I fear 'tis so, he's valiant; and what a dangerous Quality is
that in _Spain_! 'tis well he's rich.
