Underp. Harke'e, friend. I never talk with one of your coat, but I first tip him.

Foss. Impossible.

Underp. What, still impossible?
[Gives more money.

Foss. Still impossible.

Underp. Poh, pox. But prithee, friend, by the by, is there any thing in this report that she is marry'd to the doctor here?

Foss. I am afraid there is something in it.
