Clif. Such the address my duty stints me to.

Thou art the wife elect of a proud earl

Whose humble secretary sole am I.

Jul. Most right! I had forgot! I thank you, sir,

For so reminding me, and give you joy

That what, I see, had been a burthen to you

Is fairly off your hands.

Clif. A burthen to me?

Mean you yourself? Are you that burthen, Julia?

Say that the sun’s a burthen to the earth!
