HOST.
Who's there?
MILLER.
Tis the Constable, by this light; I'll steal hence, and if
I can meet mine host Blague, I'll tell him how Smug is
tain, and will him to look to himself.
[Exit.]
HOST. What the devil is that white thing? this same is a Church- yard, and I have heard that ghosts and villenous goblins have been seen here.
[Enter Sexton and Priest.]
PRIEST. Grass and hay! O, that I could conjure! we saw a spirit here in the Church-yard; and in the fallow field there's the devil with a man's body upon his back in a white sheet.
SEXTON.
It may be a woman's body, Sir John.
PRIEST. If she be a woman, the sheets damn her; Lord bless us, what a night of mortality is this!
HOST.
Priest!
PRIEST.
Mine host!
