_Char_. Is there no whypps for knaves are impudent?
Thys sawcynes will make your skynne [to] smarte.
_Fue_. Away, away! Y'are an ould man & should be wyse. I tell you I was
not in love with you tyll you doated on me; to drawe me into a fooles
paradysse[104] & there leave me is not an honest man's parte nor a good

_Char_. What kynde of madnes call you thys? for shame!
Shall I be torturd with hym?
_Tur_. Tys but a rude grosse weaknes, which anon
Ile shoe at full unto your majestie.
_Fue_. Come, sweete _Charles_, I knowe thou lovest me, & love will
creepe where it cannot goe. Come, letts condole together.
_Char_. Yes, if I like your example. Goe presentlye
And give him fortye lashes: make hym bleede
