SCENE IV.

Room in Sir Hubert Subboys’ house.

Enter Sir Hubert, Sir Lionel, Beatrice, Crispinella, and Nurse, Tysefew following.

Bea. Pray God that all be well, or would I were not!

Tyse. He’s not to be found, sir, anywhere.

Cri. Marry, nay and I would marry, methinks an old man’s a quiet thing.    10

Sir Lio. Ha, mass! and so he is.

Cri. You are a widower?
