me, Sir, I am sorry for it--another time,
Sir: I have earnest business. Now, I am sure nothing worth seeing can
belong to this litter of Fools.
L. _Blun._ My Daughter is a Person of Quality, I assure you, Sir.
_Prince._ I doubt it not, Madam--If she be of the same Piece--Send me a
fair Deliverance.
[Sir _Morgan_ leads him to _Mirtilla_, he starts.
--Ha! What bright Vision's that?
_Mir._ Heav'n! 'Tis the lovely Prince I saw in _Flanders_. [Aside.
Sir _Mer._ Look how he stares--why, what the Devil ails he?
Sir _Morg._ To her, Sir, or so, d'ye see, what a Pox, are you afraid of
her?
L. _Blun._ He's in Admiration of her Beauty, Child.
_Prince._ By Heav'n, the very Woman I adore! [Aside.
Sir _Morg._ How d'ye, see, Sir, how do ye, ha, ha, ha?
_Prince._ I cannot be mistaken; for Heav'n made nothing but young Angels
like her!
Sir _Morg._ Look ye, Page, is your Master in his right Wits?
Sir _Mer._ Sure he's in love, and Love's a devilish thing.

Sir _Morg._ No, I'll be sworn, I have kist 'em twenty times, and they
never did me harm.
_Prince._ Thou kiss those Lips? impossible, and false; they ne'er were
prest but by soft _Southern_ Winds.
Sir _Morg._ _Southern_ Winds--ha, ha, lookye, d'ye see, Boy, thy

my Wife, or so, d'ye see.
_Prince._ Thy Wife!--
_Mir._ He will betray his Passion to these Fools: Alas, he's mad--and
will undo my Hopes.
[Aside.
_Prince._ Thou mayst as well claim Kindred to the Gods; she's mine,

Sir _Morg._ Hay day, my Wife yours! look ye, as d'ye see, what, is it
_Midsummer-moon_ with you, Sir, or so, d'ye see?
_Mir._ In pity give him way, he's madder than a Storm.
