truth is the man I love must please me at first sight; if he take my eye I may take more tyme to examine his talent. _Sir Fr_. Do you but grace him with accesse and aske your owne fancie, Ladie, how you can affect him. Ile not despaire if he were cur'd of modesty, which is the whole fault in his behaviour; but he may passe without contempt. _Do_. That modestie is a foule fault. _Enter Captaine Underwitt_. _Un_. Come away, Cosen; Sir _Richard's_ come and calls for you; the Coachman is ready to mount. Noble Sir _Richard_, because you may not loose breath, you may call me a Captaine, please you, a Captaine o' the train'd band. _Sis_. 'Tis very certaine. _Sir Fr_.

Thou hast learnd the Cinque pace[235], _Tho_: is the gold weight? _Tho_. I hope so, Sir. _Cap_. Hum--into the Country;--thou hast a horse, too? _Tho_.
