your lovely Bride, long may you live and love. _Enter_ Bellmour _above_. _Bel_. Who is't has sent that Curse? Sir _Tim_. What a Pox, is that _Bellmour_? The Rogue's in choler, the Bride has not pleas'd him. _Bel_. Dogs! Do you upbraid me? I'll be with you presently. Sir _Tim_. Will you so?--but I'll not stay your coming. _Cel_. But you shall, Sir. _Bel_. Turn, Villains! [_Sir_ Tim. _&c. offers to go off_, Celinda _steps forth, and draws, they draw, and set upon her. Enter_ Bellmour _behind them: They turn, and_ Celinda _sides with_ Bellmour, _and fights. Enter_ Diana, Bellmour _fights 'em out, and leaves_ Celinda _breathless, leaning on her Sword_. _Dia_.

Who's here? one wounded--alas-- _Cel_. 'Tis not so lucky--but who art thou That dost with so much pity ask? _Dia_. He seems a Gentleman--handsome and young-- [_Aside_.
