1st Ret. Our master takes his hand—

Richard and his white staff are on the move—

Back fall our people—(tsh!—there 's Timothy

Sure to get tangled in his ribbon-ties,

And Peter's cursed rosette 's a-coming off!)

—At last I see our lord's back and his friend's;

And the whole beautiful bright company

Close round them: in they go! [Jumping down from the window-bench, and making for the table and its jugs.] Good health, long life

Great joy to our Lord Tresham and his House!

6th Ret. My father drove his father first to court,
