Cokes. Good!

Night. You oft have been told,

Both the young and the old,

And bidden beware of the cut-purse so bold;

Cokes. Well said! he were to blame that would not, i’faith.

Night. Then if you take heed not, free me from the curse,

Who both give you warning, for, and the cut-purse.

Youth, youth, thou had’st better been starved by thy nurse,

Than live to be hanged for cutting a purse.

Cokes. Good, i’faith; how say you, Numps, is there any harm in this?
