Love. No, no, I swear you shall not.

Jolly. You know I am going out of town for two days.

Love. When you return, I'll show it you; you will forget me else when you are gone, and at court.

Jolly. Can your love endure delays; or shall business thee from thence remove? These were your own arguments. Come, you shall show it me.

Love. Nay, then I perceive what unworthy way your love would find. Ye gods, are all men false?

[He pulls her bodkin, that is tied in a piece of black bobbin.

Love. Ah! as I live, I will not, I have sworn. Do not pull me: I will not be damned, I have sworn.

[He pulls her, and says this.

Jolly. As I live I'll break your bodkin then. A weeping tyrant! Come, by this good day, you shall be merciful.
