profest, I am resolved to keep. _Pert_. If I were your Ladyship, I wou'd make use of Sir _Cautious's_ Cash: pay him in his own Coin. _Bred_. Your Ladyship wou'd make no Scruple of it, if you knew how this poor Gentleman has been us'd by my unmerciful Master. L. _Ful_. I have a Key already to his Counting-House; it being lost, he had another made, and this I found and kept. _Bred_. Madam, this is an excellent time for't, my Master being gone to give my Sister _Leticia_ at Church. L. _Ful_. 'Tis so, I'll go and commit the Theft, whilst you prepare to carry it, and then we'll to dinner with your Sister the Bride. [_Exeunt_. SCENE III. _The House of Sir_ Feeble. _Enter Sir_ Feeble, Leticia, _Sir_ Cautious, Bearjest, Diana, Noisey. _Sir_ Feeble _sings and salutes 'em_. Sir _Feeb_. Welcome, _Joan Sanderson_, welcome, welcome. [_Kisses the Bride_. Ods bobs, and so thou art, Sweet-heart. [_So to the rest_. _Bear_. Methinks my Lady Bride is very melancholy. Sir _Cau_. Ay, ay, Women that are discreet, are always thus upon their Wedding-day. Sir _Feeb_. Always by day-light, Sir _Cautious_. _But when bright_ Phoebus _does retire, To_ Thetis' _Bed to quench his fire. And do the thing we need not name, We Mortals by his influence do the same. Then then the blushing Maid lays by Her simpering, and her Modesty; And round the Lover clasps and twines Like Ivy, or the circling Vines_. Sir _Feeb_. Here, _Ralph_, the Bottle, Rogue, of Sack, ye Rascal; hadst thou been a Butler worth hanging, thou wou'dst have met us at the door with it.--Ods bods, Sweet-heart, thy health. _Bear_. Away with it, to the Bride's _Haunce in Kelder_. Sir _Feeb_. Gots so, go to, Rogue, go to, that shall be, Knave, that shall be the morrow morning; he--ods bobs, we'll do't, Sweet heart; here's to't. [_Drinks again_. _Let_. I die but to imagine it, wou'd I were dead indeed. Sir _Feeb_. Hah--hum--how's this? Tears upon the Wedding day? Why, why--you Baggage, you, ye little Thing, Fools-face--away, you Rogue, you're naughty, you're naughty. [_Patting and playing, and following her_. Look--look--look now,--buss it--buss it--buss it--and Friends; did'ums, did'ums beat its none silly Baby--away, you little Hussey, away, and pledge me-- [_She drinks a little_. Sir _Cau_. A wise discreet Lady, I'll warrant her
