_Pro_. Home! This is no place for women. To your Gossips! This burthen would become a Chamber better. _Wife_. 'Tis a faire Peare. _Prov_. You long for't: pray you take it, You are priviledgd now to beg.--Ha! charmes in't? stay, Give mee't. I would not for a thousand dollars This had byn undiscoverd. Pray you goe home; At night ile see you. _Wife_. You know my obedience And I must practise it. _Prov_. Make out for the fellow That came with this device. 'Twas queintly carried: The stalke pluckt cleanly out, and in the quill This scroll conveyd. What ere it be the Prince Shall instantly peruse it. _Enter Orange, Wm., Vandort, Bredero_. _Or_.

See what is written here,-- 'You have frends left and therefore, Sir, dispaire not.' _Vand_. 'Tis this that feeds his Insolence, theis are they That, when they should have paid their prairs for him As for a guilty man, adoarnd his house In the dispight of us and of our Justice. _Bred_. But such shall find their flattering breath but makes The fire, our Cuntries safetie byds us cherish, To burne with greater heate. _Vand_. And so consume him. _Or_. The freedom of our goverment, and our honours, And what we dare doe now lies at the stake. The better part of all the christian world Marks our proceedings, and it wilbe said, Yf having the Conspirators in our powre We sentence none of them, being convincd, too, Of fowre and thirtie Articles and each treason, 'Tis don for feare. Then, to affright the rest, I hold it fitt that _Barnavelt_, one that has Most frends and meanes to hurt, and will fall therefore With greater terror, should receive his Sentence, Then dye as he deserves. For _Modesbargen_ And _Hogerbeets_ we shall find fitt time to Thinck of them hereafter. _Bred_. Let him be sent for. _Vand_. In the meane time 'tis fit we should give hearing To the _French_ Embassadors, who, I know, come now To mediat for him. _Bred_. Wayt upon them in: Their Propositions shalbe answeard freely, And by such men as are their frends, not Servants. _Enter Boisise, Morier, Wife, Daughter, Attendants_. _Boi_[202]. We will plead for him and prevaile, we doubt not. Take comfort therefore, Madam, and a while, Since you are not to be admitted here, Leave us to our endeavors. _Wife_. Heaven direct And prosper theis your charitable traviles. [_Exeunt Wife & Daughter_. _Or_. Bring Chaires there for their Lordships. [_2 Chaires_. _Vand_.[203] And prepare them A sylent hearing.
