_Betty._ My Master's Son just Married to a Celebrated Beauty, with which he comes slowly on, and beneath this Courteous Roof rests this Night his wearied Head.
La. _Lov._----Let me have Musick then, to melt him down; he comes and meets this Face to charm him. 'Tis done! 'Tis done! By Heav'n, I cannot bear the reflected Glories of those Eyes, all other Beauties fly before me.
_Mar._ Now _Betty_'s doubting----Dear Mrs _Knight_, in this Speech, stamp as Queen _Statira_ does, that always gets a Clap; and when you have ended, run off, thus, as fast as you can drive. O Gad! Duce take your confounded Stumbling Stage. [_Stumbles._
_Mar._ Hush! Hush! 'Tis nothing! Come Madam.
La. _Lov._ No more, he is mine, I have him fast: Oh! The Extasie!
_Mar._ Now Stamp, and Hug your self, Mrs. _Knight_: Oh! The strong Extasie!
_Betty._ But you must ask me leave first; yes, I will assist her, for she is nobly generous, and pays for Pleasure, as dear as a Chambermaids Avarice requires! Then, my old Master, why, I fear not him, he is an old Book-worm, never out of his Study; and whilst he finds out a way to the Moon, my Lady and I'll tread another beaten Road much pleasanter: My next Task must be to tempt Fasting, with my Lady's Beauty, this _Isabella_.----
_Am._ Did I not hear the Name of _Isabella_? _Isabella_, Charming as _Venus_ rising from the Sea, or _Diana_ descening on _Latmus_ Top too like _Diana_ much I fear; Oh _Isabella_! Where art thou! I loose my way in Tears, and cannot find my Feet. [_Exit._
_Mar._ D'ye mark! This was Mr. _Amorous_ the Steward, and he was transported, he never saw _Betty_. Look _Betty_'s surpris'd again.
_Betty._ What's this I have heard? It makes for us; Mischief and Scandal are a Feast for them who have past the Line of Shame: _Amorous_ has a Wife, and _Isabella_ _Faustins_, work on together, work, work, on together work.
_Mar._ Now make haste off, Mrs. _Betty_, as if you were so full of Thought, you did not know what you did. Gentlemen and Ladies, how d'ye like the first Scene?
Mr. _Prais._ If your Ladyship swore, you might justly use _Ben Johnson_'s Expressions; _By Gad 'tis Good_!
_Calis._ 'Tis beyond imitation. I never heard such stuff in my Life. [_Aside._
_Mar._ Did you observe _Betty_ said her Master was finding out a new way to the Moon?
