JUST. As I, being properly nominate Just, Am here associate with Contentation, So have I my whole felicity in Trust, Who illumineth mine eyes to see my salvation. TRUST. Fear ye not, shortly you shall have consolation, If I were once grown in you to perfection, Even thus goeth it always with the children of election. JUST. I will depart now; will ye go with me, Trust? TRUST. Yea, I must always associate the Just. CONT. A psalm of thanksgiving first let us sing, To the laud and praise of the immortal King. [_Here, if you will, sing "the man is blest that feareth God," &c.--Go out._ _Enter_ INCLINATION, _laughing_. INC. Lust (quod he); now in faith he is lusty, Lady Treasure and he hath made a match; He thinketh that I were marvellous trusty, Because I teach him to claw and to catch, And nowadays amity doth therein consist; He that can flatter shall be well beloved; But he that saith, _thus_ and _thus, saith Christ_, Shall as an enemy be openly reproved. Friendship, yea, friendship consisteth now in adulation; Speak fair and please the lust of thy lord, I warrant thee be had in great estimation, When those that tell truth shall be abhorr'd. Ah, unhappy Lingua, whither wilt thou ren? Take heed, I advise thee, lest thou be shent; If ye chance to tell any tales of these gentlewomen, With flesh-hooks and nails you are like to be rent; Nay, for the passion of me be not so moved, And I will please you incontinent again. Above all treasures you are worthy to be loved, Because you do no men deride nor disdain; You do not contemn the simple and poor; You be not high-minded, proud, and presumptuous, Neither wanton nor wily you be nevermore, But gentle, loving modesty, and virtuous, Behold how a lie can please some folks' diet, O[r] pacify their minds marvellous well! All hist, I warrant ye, so they [be] in quiet. How to please you hereafter now I can tell: Hark, I hear Lust and my Lady Treasure, They are given to solace, singing and pleasure. _Enter_ LUST _and_ TREASURE, _a woman finely appareled_. LUST. Ah, amorous lady, of beautiful face, Thou art heartily welcome into this place; My heart is inclined to thee, Lady Treasure, My love is insatiate, it keepeth no measure. TREAS. It is I, Master Lust, that will you advance; Treasure it is that things doth enhance: Upon me set your whole affection and lust, And pass not a point for the ways of the Just. Treasure is a pleasure, bear that in mind; Both trusty and true ye shall me always find. INC. As trusty as is a quick eel by the tail! [_Aside._ What, Lady Treasure, welcome without fail; To be better acquainted with you once I trust, But I dare not in the presence of my Master Lust.
