wned Lady of my _Primum Mobile_; that is, my best Affections. [_In Rage_. _Har_. I fear not your hard Words, Sir, but dare aloud pronounce, if _Donna Mopsophil_ like me, the Farmer, as well as I like her, 'tis a Match, and my Chariot's ready at the Gate to bear her off, d'ye see. _Mop_. Ah, how that Chariot pleads. [_Aside_. _Scar_. And I pronounce, that being intoxicated with the sweet Eyes of this refulgent Lady, I come to tender her my noblest Particulars, being already most advantageously set up with the circumstantial Implements of my Occupation. [_Points to the Shop_. _Mop_. A City Apothecary, a most genteel Calling--Which shall I chuse? --Seignior Apothecary, I'll not expostulate the circumstantial Reasons that have occasion'd me this Honour. _Scar_. Incomparable Lady, the Elegancy of your Repartees most excellently denotes the Profundity of your Capacity. _Har_. What the Devil's all this? Good Mr. Conjurer, stand by--and don't fright the Gentlewoman with your elegant Profundities. [_Puts him by_. _Scar_. How, a Conjurer! I will chastise thy vulgar Ignorance, that yclepes a Philosopher a Conjurer. [_In Rage_. _Har_. Losaphers!--Prithee, if thou be'st a Man, speak like a Man--then. _Scar_. Why, what do I speak like? what do I speak like? _Har_. What do you speak like!--why you speak like a Wheel-Barrow. _Scar_. How! _Har_. And how. [_They come up close together at half Sword Parry; stare on each other for a while, then put up and bow to each other civilly_. _Mop_. That's well, Gentlemen, let's have all Peace, while I survey you both, and see which likes me best. [_She goes between 'em, and surveys 'em both, they making ridiculous bows on both sides, and Grimaces the while_. --Ha, now on my Conscience, my two foolish Lovers, _Harlequin_ and _Scaramouch_; how are my Hopes defeated?--but, faith, I'll fit you both. [_She views 'em both_. _Scar_. So she's considering still, I shall be the happy Dog. [_Aside_. _Har_. She's taking aim, she cannot chuse but like me best. [_Aside_. _Scar_. Well, Madam, how does my Person propagate? [_Bowing and smiling_. _Mop_. Faith, Seignior, now I look better on you, I do not like your Phisnomy so well as your Intellects; you discovering some circumstantial Symptoms that ever denote a villanous Inconstancy. _Scar_. Ah, are you pleas'd, Madam. _Mop
