+Sue.+ A whore! O tempting, handsome sir! think of a rich wife rather. +Tim.+ Tempting, handsome sir! She's not married, is she, gentlemen? +Capt.+ A woodcock springed! Let us but keep him in this bacchanalian mist till morning, and 'tis done. [_Aside._ +Tim.+ Tempting, handsome sir! I've known a woman of handsome, tempting fortunes throw herself away upon a handsome, tempting sir. +Lieut.+ Hark you, sir: if she had, and could be tempted to't, have you a mind to marry? Would you marry her? +Tim.+ O, and a man were so worthy, tempting sir. +Lieut.+ Give me but a piece from you. +Tim.+ And when will you give it me again? +Lieut.+ Pray, give me but a piece from you. I'll pay this reckoning into the bargain; and if I have not a trick to make it your own, I'll give you ten for't--here's my witness. +Tim.+ There 'tis; send thee good luck with't, and go drunk to bed. +Lieut.+ Do not you be too rash, for she observes you, and is infinitely affected to good breeding. +Tim.+ I wonnot speak, I tell you, till you hold up your finger or fall a-whistling. +Capt.+ Come, we'll pay at bar, and to the Mitre in Bread Street;[63] we'll make a mad night on't. Please you, sweet ladies, but to walk into Bread Street; this gentleman has [had] a foolish slight supper, and he most ingeniously professes it would appear to him the meridian altitude of his desired happiness but to have the table decked with a pair of perfections so exquisitely refulgent. +Tim.+ He talks all sack, and he will drink no small beer. +Mis. Coote.+ Pray lead, and we[64] shall follow. +Sue.+ Bless mine eyes! my heart is full of changes. [_Exit._ +Tim.+ O, is it so? I have heard there may be more changes in a woman's heart in an hour than can be rung upon six bells in seven days. Well, go thy ways: little dost thou think how thou shalt be betrayed. Within this four-and-twenty hours thou shalt be mine own wife, flesh and blood, by father and mother, O tempting, handsome sir! [_Exeunt._ FOOTNOTES: [36] _i.e._, Intoxicate a fly.
