THE EPILOGUE.
'Tis ten to one this play can never please
All that are here: some come to take their ease,[918]
And sleep an act or two; but those, we fear,[919]
We have frighted with our trumpets; so, 'tis clear,[920]
They'll say 'tis naught: others, to hear the city[921] 5
Abused extremely, and to cry 'That's witty!'
Which we have not done neither; that, I fear,
All the expected good we're like to hear[922]
For this play at this time, is only in[923]
The merciful construction of good women;[923] 10
For such a one we show'd 'em: if they smile,
And say 'twill do, I know, within a while
All the best men are ours; for 'tis ill hap,
If they hold when their ladies bid 'em clap.
