Jasp. Ay, ay, that’s Francisco; but you have promis’d me
often to tell me a secret concerns them; prethee
do’t now, Nurse.
Nurse. But will you ne’re speak on’t? If you do, I shall
get no more money for thee, Jasper; that’s the way,
i get all, Chuck; no, no, no matter what’s between them,
trust thou to me.
Jasp. Well, Nurse, I thought you had Lov’d me, but I see
you do not; you know I can keep secrets.
Nurse. Ay, but this is such a one I dare not tell it; besides,
it was not Eugenias fault at first—alas, poor
fool, she was in a sad taking, when she found
her Couzen Francisco in Bed with her.
Jasp. In Bed, sayst thou?
Nurse. Lord bless me! what have I done? If you should
tell now.
Jasp. Ne’re fear it, tell me all: I would not for the
world have mist this Story, it makes a full amends
for all my Crosses; come, Nurse, prethee quickly
tell me all passages.
Nurse. I tell no more, my mind misgives me I’ve said
too much already.
Jasp. Not tell me more, Old Beldame? Speak it quickly,
or what I know shall soon unto my Lord.
Nurse. How now! Is this dissembling too?
