ov._ Pray, Sir, keep him not long in Discourse, the Sea has made him unfit for-- _Alon._ Any thing but seeing my Mistress. _Lov._ I'll have mercy upon thee, and fetch her to thee. [Ex. _Lovis_. _Car._ Sir, you must know, that we suffer not our Women in Spain to converse so frequently with your Sex, and that thro a cautious-- well consider'd prudent-- Consideration. _Alon._ But, Sir, do you consider what an impatient thing a young Lover is? Or is it so long since you were one your self, you have forgot it? 'Tis well he wanted Words.

I shall never sleep in quiet-- Valiant! that's such a thing, to be Rich, or Wise and Valiant. [Goes to _Euphemia_. _Lov._ Colonel, pray to the business, for I fear you will betray your self. _Car._ But look upon his Wealth, _Euphemia_, and you will find those Advantages there which are wanting in his Person; but I think the Man's well. _Euph._ I must not seem to yield too soon.
