Jer. O brave Lad! we all love you dearly.
Coc. But we must be sure not to transgress our Orders, for if we do, it will be all laid upon my Back; I have engaged for ye all, and if ye do, I'll never be your Spokesman again.
Jer. We'll take Care: But what Play do you like best?
Coc. We'll talk of that when we come into the Fields.

NICHOLAS and JEROME.

Jer. There is no Time of the Year with us, but what's fit to play in.
