Adul. I thank your grace; and, I will, for you, take such pain
That, ere I deserve one, ye shall give me twain.
Avar. Honesty! your tongue trippeth!
Resp. How said ye? take such pain—
Adul. That ere ye give me one, I will deserve twain—
By your licence, Madame! to take away this mote.
Avar. Nay! Honesty will not see a wem on your coat.
Now unto you I commend Reformation.
Resp. Of him is no small need now, in this nation.
Oppr. Well, now that ye bid me abuses to redress,
I doubt not all enormities so to repress,
As shall redound to your wealth and honour at length.
Resp. Thereto shall authority aid you with his strength.
Avar. Yea! for Authority to govern is most fit.
Insol. If ye, Dame Respublica! do me so admit,
I doubt not to hamper the proudest of them all.
