O! that I could ?tay time, now, [116] 20
Midnight will come too fa?t vpon mee, I feare,
To cut my plea?ure--
M^rs. FI. Looke at the back-doore,
_Shee ?ends_ Diuell _out_.
One knocks, ?ee who it is.

I cannot get this venter of the cloake,
Out of my fancie; nor the
Gentlemans
way, 25
He tooke, which though 'twere ?
trange, yet 'twas hand?ome,
And had a grace withall, beyond the newne??e.
Sure he will thinke mee that dull ?tupid creature,
Hee ?aid, and may conclude it; if I finde not
Some thought to thanke th' attemp. He did pre?ume, 30
By all the carriage of it, on my braine,
For an?wer; and will ?weare 'tis very barren,
If it can yeeld him no returne. Who is it?
