You [knew] my father well, and in him me,

Left [solely] heir to all his lands and goods,

Which I have better'd rather than decreased:

Then tell me, if I get your daughter's love,

What dowry shall I have with her to wife?

120

Bap. After my death the one half of my lands,

And in possession twenty thousand crowns.

Pet. And, for that dowry, I 'll assure her [of]

Her widowhood, be it that she survive me,
