_Thomas_, of being drunke, for it doth drowne the mortall soule; and yours cannot swim, _Thomas_,--can it? _Tho_. Not as I know, Captaine; if it scape fire tis as much as I looke for. _Within Eng_. Oh--oh-- _Cap_. What's that? _Tho_. Tis Mr. _Engine_ recovered from his dead sleepe. [_Exit_. _Un_. D'ee heare, Captaine, for all this I have a great mind to a wench, and a wench I must have if there be one above ground. Oh _London, London_, thou art full of frank tenements, give me _London_. Shall we wheele about yet? _Cap_. Give you _London_? Wo'nott _Cheapeside_ serve your turne, or the _Exchange_? _Enter Thomas_. _Tho_. Oh, gentlemen, Mr. _Engine_ is surely bewitch'd. _Cap_. What, what's the matter? bring the witch and Mr. _Engine_ before us. _Tho_. He does vomit the strangest things yonder. _Cap_. Did not I say, murder will out? _Tho_. I thinke he has eaten and drunke nothing but Monopolies, and too hard to be digested they come up againe. _Within Eng_. Oh! _Tho_. Harke, I must hold his head. [_Exit_. _Cap_. Did not I tell you something would come out? _Tho_. Pins, pins, they lay across his throat. I told you he was bewitch'd. Heyday! cards and dice, out with 'em, the Divells a gamester and paies the box soundly--Now, now, now. _Un_. Whats that? _Tho_. Tis something clammy,--now,--oh, tis sope! _Cap_. Sope? give a man leave to wash his mouth. _Un_. Does not the lyme burne his throat, _Thomas_? _Tho_. Alas, poore gentleman, something now agen is ready to strangle him; out with em,--hides, hides,--it was the hornes stuck in his gullett. _Within_. Oh-- _Tho_. Well straind; what a foule stomack he has! open your mouth, Mr. _Engine_. _Cap_. Throw downe a pottlepot. _Tho_. I have, sir, and it has come up full of medium wine; if you have any charity come and helpe me to hold his head; now agen! _Within_. Oh, oh, oh! _Un_. This is very strange, Captaine; the man is certainely enchanted. _Tho_. Master, master, tis _Shrovetuesday_[267] and the prentices are pulling downe _Covent Garden_; the Brickes come as whole out as if he had swallowed Cherristones. Hey! will you take Tobacco in the Roll? here is a whole shiplading of _Bermudas_ and one little twopenny paper of berrinas, with a superscription 'To my very loving friends the Custome-house.' _Cap_. Put up that for a relique, _Thomas_, and open it upon high dayes to clear the sore eyes of our _Spanish_
