+Don P.+ 'Sdeath, man, thou dream'st! Don Zancho from Don Julio's In that manner? Awake, fool, and speak sense.
+Fulv.+ I say but what I saw, as I see you.
+Don P.+ O, the devil! what, the same villain Found the affronter of my friend too here In the same kind! Give me my cloak and sword, I must know the bottom of this. [_Exeunt._
_Enter +Blanca+ and +Francisca+, as in her antechamber._
+Blan.+ I come from seeing and caressing Silvia; But with most strange surprise at her comportment Towards me.
+Blan.+ My words and actions both expressing to her, Not only highest gratitude and kindness, But a solicitude in the concerns Of her honour, equal to what she had shown In mine, they were receiv'd with such a coldness, With such an air of melancholy pride, With half replies, and those not half to th' purpose, As make me with amazement to conclude, That either she has lost her understanding, Or that there's somewhat in't we understand not.
+Fran.+ She is a maid of an odd composition; And besides that, I needs must tell you, madam, That having had my observation freer Than you, perhaps, during last night's adventure, I remark'd somewhat, both in her demeanour And in Don Zancho's, makes me confident They met not there strangers to one another, As you imagine. But there's time enough To think and talk of that: what presses now, Is your right ordering of Don Julio: You have begun as well as can be wish'd.
+Blan.+ Say, did I not do my part? [_Jollily._
+Fran.+ Beyond imagination; But take heed now of overdoing it, 'Tis time to tack about to reconcilement, And thought of drawing those advantages From the embroilment, as may for the future Secure you from like accidents.
+Fran.+ The first step must atonement be between you, Of which he hath so earnestly conjur'd me To be an instrument that, you consenting To give him a hearing through my mediation, I am made for ever, and settled in the power Of serving you by better cosening him: Besides, he tells me, he hath that to say And to propose unto you, as shall not only Excuse him with you, but prevent all danger Of prejudicial rumours, which might rise From last night's accident.
+Blan.+ Agreed; let's in, And play the second part. [_Exeunt._
_Enter +Don Zancho+ and +Chichon+, as in his own house._
