ointment thus _En Cavalier_, one shou'd have some comfort in being beat for you. _Char._ The Fool comprehends nothing. Sir _Geo._ Nor wou'd I have him; prithee take him along with thee. _Char._ Enough: _Marplot_, you shall go home with me. _Marpl._ I'm glad I'm well with him however. Sir _George_, yours. Egad, _Charles_, asking me to go home with him, gives me a shrewd suspicion there's more in the Garden-Gate, than I comprehend. Faith, I'll give him the drop, and away to _Guardians_, and find it out.
