Avar. It is time for us to bridle.
Well, go your ways, afore, in all haste, Honesty:
And tell Reformation and Authority
That both these ladies, in all goodly fashion,
Must be entertained here in this nation.
Madame Respublica! is't not your pleasure so?
Resp. What else? in all the haste, Honesty, see ye go:
Avar. Say further, that I would we four, anon, might meet
Here, or where they will, save in the open street.
And hear you, Honesty!
Adul. What now?
Avar. A little near!
Provide in any wise that Verity come not here:
Let Insolence and Oppression keep her hence.
Adul. We shall, all three, therein do our best diligence.
Avar. Bid them well remember the world will wax quaisy;
Some of us, ere long, may hap leap at a daisy;
Or put out the i of Misericordia,
And without an i play e'en plain trussing corda.
[Exeat Adul[ation].
Resp. Policy, what is it that ye talk there so long?
Avar. I send instructions that they may not do wrong.
