Enter Lady Covet on crutches.

Euph. Here comes the lady bride.

Free. Joy to your ladyship!

Lady C. I thank you, sir: y' are very welcome all.

Free. I have made bold to bring my friends along,
As you commanded, lady.

Lady C. They are most welcome.

Euph. Methinks your ladyship looks fresh to-day,
And like a bride indeed.

Lady C. Ah, Master Euphues!
You, I perceive, can flatter.

Euph. Does your glass
Tell you I flatter, madam?

Lady C. Bestow this
Upon young maids; but let me tell you, sir,
Old folks may marry too. It was ordain'd
At first to be as well a stay to age
As to please youth. We have our comforts too,
Though we be old.
