Save four or five. Here, sir, is one of these;

The others will gain courage in good time.

A MIDDLE-AGED MAN.

I come to deal if you give honest price.

FIRST MERCHANT.

[Reading in a parchment.]

John Maher, a man of substance, with dull mind,

And quiet senses and unventurous heart.

The angels think him safe. Two hundred crowns,

All for a soul, a little breath of wind.
