r Grace, now I remember me, methinks I do. _Guz_. Dog, how art thou call'd? _Fran_. An't like your Excellence, Men call'd me Signior Don _Francisco_, but now they will call me Coxcomb. _Guz_. Of what Trade? _Fran_. An't please your Highness, a Gentleman. _Guz_. How much dost thou get a day by that Trade? Hah! _Fran_. An't like your Majesty, our Gentlemen never get but twice in all their lives; that is, when Fathers die, they get good Estates; and when they marry, they get rich Wives: but I know what your Mightiness wou'd get by going into my Country and asking the Question. _Guz_. What, Fool? _Fran_. A good Cudgelling, an't please your Illustriousness. _Guz_. Slave! To my Face!--Take him away, and let him have the Strapado. _Car_. _Baridama, Dermack_. _Fran_.

Oh, that's some dreadful thing, I'll warrant,-- Gracious Great Turk, for Mahomet's sake, excuse me; alas, I've lost my wits. _Car_. _Galero Gardines_? _Guz_.

Oh, what an Ague shakes my Heart,--handsom! alas, no, dread Sir; what shou'd such a deform'd Polecat as I do with a handsom Wife? _Car_. Is she young? _Fran_. Young, what shou'd such an old doting Coxcomb as I do with a young Wife? Pox on him for a Heathen Whoremaster. _Car_. Old is she then? _Fran_. Ay, very old, an't please your Gloriousness. _Car_. Is she not capable of Love? _Fran_. Hum, so, so,--like Fire conceal'd in a Tinderbox,--I shall run mad. _Car_. Is she witty? _Fran_. I'm no competent Judge, an't like your Holiness, --This Catechism was certainly of the Devil's own making. [Aside. _Enter_ Guzman, _bringing in_ Julia, Clara, Isabella, Jacinta, Guiliom, Antonio, &c. _Women veil'd_. _Car_. These, Sir, are all the Slaves of Note are taken. _Isa_.
