or sometimes to come neerer them; if your breath be ill, your teeth ill, or any thing about you ill, why they will presently breake with ye, in kinde sort, good termes, pretty experiments, and tell you plaine this; thus it is with your breath, Sir, thus it is with your teeth, Sir, this is your disease, and this is your medicine. _Goos_. As I am true mortall Knight, it is most superlatively good, this. _Foul_. Why this is courtly now, this is sweete, this plaine, this is familiar, but by the Court of _France_, our peevish dames are so proud, so precise, so coy, so disdainfull, and so subtill, as the _Pomonian_ Serpent, _mort dieu_ the Puncke of _Babylon_ was never so subtill. _Rud_. Nay, doe not chafe so, Captaine. _Foul_. Your _Frenchman_ would ever chafe, sir _Cutt_., being thus movde. _Rud_. What? and play with his beard so? _Foul_. I and brystle, it doth expresse that passion of anger very full, and emphaticall. _Goos_: Nay good Knight if your _French_ wood brystle, let him alone, in troth our Ladies are a little too coy, and subtill, Captaine, indeed. _Foul_.

Fatt sir? why doe ye thinke emphaticall is fatt, sir _Gyles_? _Rud_. Gods my life, brother Knight, didst thou thinke so? hart I know not what it is my selfe, but yet I never thought it was fatt, Ile be sworne to thee. _Foul_. Why if any true Courtly dame had had but this new fashioned sute, to entertaine anything indifferently stuffed, why you should have had her more respective by farre. _Rud_.
