I’ll keep my Word with thee, as the least Evil;
A tantalizing Woman’s worse than Devil.

ACT III.
SCENE I. Sir Feeble’s House.
The Second Song before the Entry.
A SONG made by Mr. Cheek.
_No more, Lucinda, ah! expose no more
To the admiring World those conquering Charms:
In vain all day unhappy Men adore,
What the kind Night gives to my longing Arms.
Their vain Attempts can ne’er successful prove,
Whilst I so well maintain the Fort of Love.
Yet to the World with so bewitching Arts,
Your dazling Beauty you around display,
And triumph in the Spoils of broken Hearts,
That sink beneath your feet, and croud your Way.
Ah! suffer now your Cruelty to cease,
And to a fruitless War prefer a Peace_.
Enter Ralph with Light, Sir Feeble, and Bellmour
Sir Feeb. So, so, they’re gone—Come, Francis, you shall have the Honour of undressing me for the Encounter; but ‘twill be a sweet one, Francis.
