Alas, alas! come hither! I shall be your borrow.
Alack, alack! veni, veni! Come hither, with sorrow!
Peace, fair babies! ye shall have a napple to-morrow:
Why greet you so, why?
New G. Alas, master! alas my privity!
[Commences to untruss.
Mis. A! where? alack! fair babe, ba me!
Abide! too soon I shall it see!
Now. Here, here! see my head, good master!
Mis. Lady, help! silly darling! veni, veni!
I shall help thee of thy pain;
I shall smite off thy head, and set it on again.
Nought. By our Lady, sir! a fair plaster!
Will ye off with his head? it is a shrewd charm!
As for me I have none harm;
I were loth to forbear mine arm.
Ye play: in nomine Patris, chop!
New G. Ye shall not chop my jewels, and I may!
Now. Yea, Christ's cross! will ye smite my head away?
There! we're on anon; out! ye shall not assay—
I might well be called a fop!
Mis. I can chop it off, and make it again.
