Brother, you err, 'tis fifteen miles a day,
His stage is ten, his beatings are fifteen.
Bes.
'Tis the longest, but we subjects must—
1.
Be subject to it; you are wise and vertuous.
Bes.
Obedience ever makes that noble use on't,
To which I dedicate my beaten body;
I must trouble you a little further, Gentlemen o'th' Sword.
2.
No trouble at all to us Sir, if we may
Profit your understanding, we are bound
By vertue of our calling to utter our opinions,
Shortly, and discreetly.
Bes.
