Plume. You'll find me at the Hall: the justices are sitting by this time, and I must attend them.

SCENE III.
A Court of Justice.
Balance, Scale, and Scruple, upon the Bench;
Constable, Kite, Mob.
Kite and Constable advance.
Kite. Pray, who are those honourable gentlemen upon the bench?
Const. He in the middle is Justice Balance, he on the right is Justice Scale, and he on the left is Justice Scruple, and I am Mr. Constable; four very honest gentlemen.
Kite. O dear, sir! I am your most obedient servant. [Saluting the Constable.] I fancy, sir, that your employment and mine are much the same; for my business is to keep people in order, and, if they disobey, to knock them down; and then we are both staff officers.
Const. Nay, I'm a serjeant myself—of the militia—Come, brother, you shall see me exercise. Suppose this a musket; now I'm shouldered.
