Shift. Faith, Sir, and that were no
hard matter, for a day or two the Town will believe it, the same they
look for: and the Bank, Operators and Musick are all ready. Will. Well
enough, add but a Harlequin and Scaramouch, and I shall mount in
querpo. Shift. Take no care for that, Sir, your Man, and Ensign Hunt,
are excellent at those two; I saw 'em act 'em the other day to a
Wonder, they'll be glad of the Employment, my self will be an
Operator. Will. No more, get 'em ready, and give it out, the Man of
Art's arriv'd: Be diligent and secret, for these two politick Asses
must be cozen'd. Shift. I will about the Business instantly. [Ex.
Shift. Beau. This Fellow will do Feats if he keeps his Word. Will.
I'll give you mine he shall- But, dear Beaumond, where shall we meet
anon? Beau. I thank ye for that- 'Gad, ye shall dine with me. Feth. A
good Motion- Will. I beg your Pardon now, dear Beaumond- I having
lately nothing else to do, took a Command of Horse from the General at
the last Siege, from which I am just arriv'd, and my Baggage is
behind, which I must take order for. Feth. Pox on't now there's a
Dinner lost, 'twas ever an unlucky Rascal. Beau. To tempt thee more,
thou shalt see my Wife that is to be. Will. Pox on't, I am the leudest
Company in Christendom with your honest Women- but- What, art thou to
be noos'd then? Beau.
