Give her!- Ha,
ha, ha! why, she's a Person of Quality- That's a good one, give her!
'sheartlikins dost think such Creatures are to be bought? Or are we
provided for such a Purchase? Give her, quoth ye? Why she presented me
with this Bracelet, for the Toy of a Diamond I us'd to wear: No,
Gentlemen, Ned Blunt not every Body- She expects me again to night.
Will. Egad that's well; we'll all go. Blunt. Not a Soul: No,
Gentlemen, you are Wits; I am a dull Country Rogue, I. Fred. Well,
Sir, for all your Person of Quality, I shall be very glad to
understand your Purse be secure; 'tis our whole Estate at present,
which we are loth to hazard in one Bottom: come, Sir, unload. Blunt.
Take the necessary Trifle, useless now to me, that am belov'd by such
a Gentlewoman- 'sheartlikins Money! Here take mine too. Fred. No, keep
that to be cozen'd, that we may laugh. Will. Cozen'd! - Death! wou'd I
cou'd meet with one, that wou'd cozen me of all the Love I cou'd spare
to night. Fred. Pox 'tis some common Whore upon my Life. Blunt. A
Whore! yes with such Clothes! such Jewels! such a House! such
Furniture, and so attended! a Whore! Belv. Why yes, Sir, they are
Whores, tho they'll neither entertain you with Drinking, Swearing, or
Baudy; are Whores in all those gay Clothes, and right Jewels; are
Whores with great Houses richly furnisht with Velvet Beds, Store of
Plate, handsome Attendance, and fine Coaches, are Whores and errant
ones.
