PROUDLY. Slave! thou liest. INGEN. Zounds! [_About to strike._ BRO. Kill him! MAID. O, hold! Sir, you dishonour much your brother To counsel him 'gainst hospitality To strike in his own house. INGEN. You, lord insolent, I will fight with you: Take this as a challenge, and set your time. PROUDLY. To-morrow morning, Ingen; 'Tis that I covet, and provoke thee for. BRO. Will you not strike him now? INGEN. No; my good boy Is both discreet and just in his advice. Thy glories are to last but for a day: Give me thy hand; To-morrow morning thou shalt be no lord. PROUDLY. To-morrow noon thou shalt not be at all. INGEN. Pish! why should you think so? have not I arms, A soul as bold as yours, a sword as true? I do not think your honour in the field, Without your lordship's liveries, will have odds. PROUDLY. Farewell, and let's have no excuses, pray. [_Exit_ PROUDLY. INGEN. I warrant you. Pray, say your prayers to-night, And bring an[98] inkhorn w' ye, to set your hand to A satisfactory recantation. [_Exit._ MAID. O wretched maid! whose sword can I pray for? But by the other's loss I must find death. O odious brother, if he kill my love! O bloody love, if he should kill my brother! Despair on both sides of my discontent Tells me no safety rests but to prevent. [_Exit._ SCENE III. _Enter_ WIDOW _and_ BOLD _like_ PRINCOX. WID. What's o'clock, Princox? BOLD. Bedtime, an't please you, madam. WID. Come, undress me. Would God had made me a man! BOLD. Why, madam? WID. Because I would have been in bed as soon as they. We are so long unpinning and unlacing. BOLD. Yet many of us, madam, are quickly undone sometime: but herein we have the advantage of men, though they can be abed sooner than we, it's a great while, when they are abed, ere they can get up. WID. Indeed, if they be well-laid, Princox, one cannot get them up again in haste. BOLD. O God! madam, how mean you that? I hope you know, ill things taken into a gentlewoman's ears are the quick corrupters of maiden modesty. I would be loth to continue in any service unfit for my virgin estate, or where the world should take any notice of light behaviour in the lady I follow; for, madam, the main point of chastity in a lady is to build the rock of a good opinion amongst the people by circumstances, and a fair show she must make. _Si non caste, tamen caute_, madam; and though wit be a wanton, madam, yet I beseech your ladyship, for your own credit and mine, let the bridle of judgment be always in the chaps of it, to give it head or restrain it, according as time and place shall be convenient. WID. Precise and learned Princox, dost not thou go to Blackfriars?
