Jul. That passes, Sir, for such, but is indeed of Quality.
Cor. This Stranger is the Devil, how shou’d he know that Secret else?
Jul. She told me too ‘twas for my sake alone, whom from the first Minute she saw she lov’d, she had assum’d that Name and that Disguise, the sooner to invite me.
Lau. ‘Tis plain, the things I utter’d!—Oh, my Heart!
Gal. Curse on the publick Jilt, the very Flattery she wou’d have past on me.
Cor. Pox take him, I must draw on him, I cannot hold. [Aside.
Gal. Was ever such a Whore?
Lau. Oh, that I knew this Man, whom by mistake I lavisht all the Secrets of my Soul to! [Aside.
Jul. I prest for something more than dear Expressions,
And found her yield apace;
But sighing, told me of a fatal Contract,
She was oblig’d to make to one she never saw;
And yet if I wou’d vow to marry her, when she cou’d prove
To merit it, she wou’d deny me nothing.
Lau. ‘Twas I, by Heaven, that heedless Fool was I.
