SCAR. Master Gripe, is my bond current for this gentleman?
ILF. Good security, you Egyptian grasshopper, good security.
[Aside.]
GRIPE. And for as much more, kind Master Scarborow,
Provided that men, mortal as we are,
May have—
SCAR. May have security.
GRIPE. Your bond with land conveyed, which may assure me of mine own again.
SCAR. You shall be satisfied, and I'll become your debtor
For full five hundred more than he doth owe you.
This night we sup here; bear us company,
And bring your counsel, scrivener, and the money
With you, where I will make as full assurance
As in the law you'd wish.
GRIPE. I take your word, sir,
And so discharge you of your prisoner.
ILF. Why then let's come
And take up a new room, the infected hath spit in this.
He that hath store of coin wants not a friend;
Thou shalt receive, sweet rogue, and we will spend.
[Aside. Exeunt.
Enter THOMAS and JOHN SCARBOROW.
