Ger. Make no show then, I am glad to see you Sir; and I am Gerrard. How stand affairs?
Hub. Fair, if ye dare now follow, Hemskirk I have let goe, and these my causes, I'le tell ye privately, and how I have wrought him, And then to prove me honest to my friends, Look upon these directions, you have seen his.
Hig. Then will I speak a speech, and a brave speech In praise of Merchants, where's the Ape?
Prig. ——— Take him, A gowty Bear-ward stole him the other day.

In his French doublet, with his blister'd bullions,
In a long stock ty'd up; O how daintily
Would I have made him wait, and shift a trencher,
Carry a cup of wine? ten thousand stinks
Wait on thy mangy hide, thou lowzy Bear-ward.
Ger. 'Tis passing well, I both believe and joy in't,
And will be ready: keep you here the mean while,
And keep in, I must a while forsake ye,
Upon mine anger no man stir, this two hours.
Hig. Not to the wedding Sir?
Ger. Not any whither.
Hig. The wedding must be seen sir; we want meat too. We are horrible out of meat.
Prig. Shall it be spoken,
Fat Capons shak't their tails at's in defiance?
And turkey tombs such honorable monuments,
Shall piggs, Sir, that the Parsons self would envy,
And dainty Ducks—
