st vn
sauory
smiles, and art indeed
191182the mo
st comparatiue ra
scallie
st sweer yong Prince. But
Hal,
192183I prethe trouble me no more with vanitie, I woulde to God
193184thou and I knewe where a commodity of good names were
194185to be bought: an olde Lorde of the councell rated me the o
- 195186ther day in the
street about you
sir, but I markt him not, and
196187yet he talkt very wi
sely, but I regarded him not, and yet hee
197188talkt wi
sely and in the
street to.
198189Prin. Thou did
st well, for wi
sedome cries out in the
streets
190and no man regards it.
199191Falst. O thou ha
st damnable iteration, and art indeed able
200192to corrupt a
saint: thou ha
st done much harme vpon me
Hal,
201193God forgiue thee for it: before I knewe thee
Hal, I knewe no
- 202194thing, and now am I, if a man
should
speake trulie, little better
203195then one of the wicked: I mu
st giue ouer this life, and I will
204196giue it ouer: by the Lord and I doe not, I am a villaine, ile bee
205197damnd for neuer a kings
sonne in Chri
stendom.
207198Prin. Where

se to morrow Iacke?
208199Falst. Zounds where thou wilt lad, ile make one, an I do not
209200call me villaine and ba
ffell me.
210201Prin. I
see a good amendment of life in thee, from praying
212203Fal. Why
Hall, tis my vocation
Hall, tis no
sinne for a man
213204to labor in his vocation.
Enter Poines. 214205Poynes nowe

set a match.
215206O if men were to be
saued by merit, what hole in hell were hot
216207enough for him? this is the mo
st omnipotent villaine that euer
217208cried,
stand, to a true man.

soule that thou
soulde
st 222213him on good friday la

224215Prince. Sir Iohn
stands to his word, the diuell

225216bargaine, for he was neuer yet a breaker of prouerbes: he will
226217giue the diuell his due.
