How shoulde a mariage betwene you be towarde,

If both parties drawe backe, and become so frowarde.

R. Royster. Nay dame, I will fire thee out of thy house,

And destroy thee and all thine, and that by and by.

M. Mery. Nay for the passion of God sir, do not so.

R. Royster. Yes, except she will say yea to that she sayde no.

C. Custance. And what, be there no officers trow we, in towne

To checke idle loytrers, braggyng vp and downe?

Where be they, by whome vacabunds shoulde be represt?

That poore sillie Widowes might liue in peace and rest.
