2221Muck. O monstrous unheard of forgery.

2222Tip. Knight, I never heard of such villany in our own

2223Countrey, in my life.

2224Muck. Why 'tis impossible. dare you maintain your

2225words?

2226Skir. Dare we? e'ne to their wezen pipes: we know

2227all their plots, they cannot squander with us, they have

2228knavishly abus'd us, made onely properties on's to ad[-}

2229vance their selves upon our shoulders, but they shall rue

2230their abuses, this morning they are to be married.

2231Muck. 'Tis too true, yet if the Widow be not too

2232much besotted on slights and forgeries, the revelation of

2233their villanies will make 'em loathsome, and to that end,

2234be it in private to you, I sent late last night to an ho-

2235nourable personage, to whom I am much indebted in

2236kindnesse, as he is to me, and therefore presume upon

2237the payment of his tongue, and that he will lay out good

2238words for me, and to speak truth, for such needfull occa-

2239sions, I onely preserve him in bond, and sometimes he

2240may doe me more good here in the City by a free word

2241of his mouth, then if he had paid one half in hand, and

2242took Doomesday for tother.

2243Tip. Introth, sir, without soothing be it spoken, you

2244have publisht much judgement in these few words.

2245Muck. For you know, what such a man utters will

2246be thought effectuall; and to weighty purpose, and there-

2247fore into his mouth we'll put the approved theame of

2248their forgeries.

2249Skir. And I'le maintain it, Knight, if she'll be true.

2251Muck. How now, fellow.

2252Serv. May it please you, sir, my Lord is newly lighted

2253from his Coach.

2254Muck. Is my Lord come already? his honour's early:

2255You see he loves me well; up before heaven,

2256Trust me, I have found him night-capt at eleven:

2257There's good hope yet: come, I'le relate all to him.
