THE OATH
It was an ill oath better broke than kept—
The laws of nature, and of nations, do
Dispense with matters of divinity
In such a case.
Tateham.
CHAPTER I
THE HUT ON THORNE WASTE
Hind. Are all our horses and our arms in safety?
Furbo. They feed, like Pluto's palfreys, under ground.
Our pistols, swords, and other furniture,
Are safely locked up at our rendezvous.
Prince of Prigs' Revels.
