Better music ne'er was known, Than a quire of hearts in one. Let each other, that hath been Troubled with the gall or spleen, Learn of us to keep his brow Smooth and plain, as yours are now. Sing though before the hour of dying, He shall rise, and then be crying Heyho, 'tis nought but mirth That keeps the body from the earth. [_Exeunt omnes._ EPILOGUS. _Cit._ Come, Nell, shall we go? The play's done. _Wife._ Nay, by my faith, George, I have more manners than so, I'll speak to these gentlemen first. I thank you all, gentlemen, for your patience and countenance to Ralph, a poor fatherless child, and if I may see you at my house, it should go hard but I would have a pottle of wine, and a pipe of tobacco for you, for truly I hope you like the youth, but I would be glad to know the truth. I refer it to your own discretions, whether you will applaud him or no, for I will wink, and whilst, you shall do what you will.--I thank you with all my heart: God give you good night. Come, George.
