And there I sawe the neele, even with these two eyes;

Who ever say the contrary, I will sweare he lyes.

D. Rat. O Diccon, that I was not there then in thy steade!

Diccon. Well, if ye will be ordred, and do by my reade,

I will bring you to a place, as the house standes, 130

Where ye shall take the drab with the neele in hir handes.

D. Rat. For Gods sake do so, Diccon, and I will gage my gowne

To geve thee a full pot of the best ale in the towne.

Diccon. Follow me but a litle, and marke what I will say;

Lay downe your gown beside you; go to, come on your way! 135
