KATH. We kneel: forget, and say if you but love us,
You gave us grief for future happiness.
SCAR. What's all this to my conscience?
BUT. Ease, promise of succeeding joy to you;
Read but this letter.
SIR WIL. Which tells you that your lord and guardian's dead.
BUT. Which tells you that he knew he did you wrong,
Was griev'd for't, and for satisfaction
Hath given you double of the wealth you had.
BRO. Increas'd our portions.
WIFE. Given me a dowry too.
BUT. And that he knew,
Your sin was his, the punishment his due.
SCAR. All this is here:
Is heaven so gracious to sinners then?
BUT. Heaven is, and has his gracious eyes,
To give men life, not life-entrapping spies.
