Pedringano.

He asketh for my lady Bell'-Imperia.

Lorenzo.

What to do, Hieronimo? the duke my father hath,
Upon some disgrace, awhile remov'd her hence;
But if it be aught I may inform her of,
Tell me, Hieronimo, and I'll let her know it.

Hieronimo.

Nay, nay, my lord, I thank you; it shall not need.
I had a suit unto her, but too late,
And her disgrace makes me unfortunate.

Lorenzo.[153]

Why so, Hieronimo? use me.

Hieronimo.

O no, my lord; I dare not, it must not be:
I humbly thank your lordship.
