Wife. Not yet, sir; but here they come like honest gentlemen
To take some order for it: good sweetheart,
Shall it be put to me?
Steph. Do as you please;
In all thy deeds thou'rt govern'd with good stars;
Therefore, if thou cry'st peace, I'll not raise wars.
E'en order it how thou wilt.
Wife. I thank ye, sir: then tell me, gentlemen,
What present money can you pay?
Speed. Two hundred pound we can lay down.
Lamb. And take up seven times as much if we knew where to get it; but there's our lamentable case: mistress, if you strip us any nearer, you'll strip the skin and all, I'll assure you.
Wife. We'll shear no sheep so close.
Lamb. No sheep, forsooth, but a poor Innocent Lambskin.
Clown. You should be a calf by your white face.
Wife. All your two thousand pound, gentlemen, we quit
For your two hundred: go, pay the money to my coz,
And receive your two bonds cancell'd.
[To Stephen.] Say, sir, are ye content?
Steph. Wife, I must stand to the arbitrament.
Go, cousin, receive their money: [To Clown] and, sirrah,
Make them drink.
