t possible? _Scar_. Most true, Sir, and that facilitates the Journey _per Viscera_. --But I detain you, Sir;--another time, Sir,--I will now only beg the Honour of a Word or two with the Governante, before I go. _Doct_. Sir, she shall wait on you, and I shall be proud of the Honour of your Conversation. [_Ex_. Doctor. _Enter to him_ Harlequin, _dress'd like a Farmer, as before_. _Har_. Hum--What have we here, a Taylor or a Tumbler? _Scar_. Ha--Who's this?--Hum--What if it shou'd be the Farmer that the Doctor has promis'd _Mopsophil_ to? My Heart misgives me. [_They look at each other a while_. Who wou'd you speak with, Friend? _Har_. This is, perhaps, my Rival the Apothecary.--Speak with, Sir! why, what's that to you? _Scar_. Have you Affairs with Seignor Doctor, Sir? _Har_. It may be I have, it may be I have not. What then, Sir? _While they seem in angry Dispute, enter_ Mopsophil. _Mop_.

And disingenuous, Sir, to intrude on me. [_Putting one another by_. _Mop_. Let me then speak first. _Har_. I'm dumb. _Scar_. I acquiesce. _Mop_. I was inform'd there was a Person here had Propositions of Marriage to make me. _Har_. That's I, that's I-- [_Shoves_ Scar. _away_. _Scar_. And I attend to that consequential _Finis_. [_Shoves_ Har. _away_. _Har_. I know not what you mean by your Finis, Seignior; but I am come to offer my self this Gentlewoman's Servant, her Lover, her Husband, her Dog in a Halter, or any thing. _Scar_.
