CAR. Besides, sir, you shall never need to go to a hot-house, you shall sweat there with courting your mistress, or losing your money at primero, as well as in all the stoves in Sweden. Marry, this, sir, you must ever be sure to carry a good strong perfume about you, that your mistress's dog may smell you out amongst the rest; and, in making love to her, never fear to be out; for you may have a pipe of tobacco, or a bass viol shall hang o' the wall, of purpose, will put you in presently. The tricks your Resolution has taught you in tobacco, the whiffe, and those sleights, will stand you in very good ornament there. FAST. Ay, to some, perhaps; but, an he should come to my mistress with tobacco (this gentleman knows) she'd reply upon him, i'faith. O, by this bright sun, she has the most acute, ready, and facetious wit that -- tut, there's no spirit able to stand her. You can report it, signior, you have seen her. PUNT. Then can he report no less, out of his judgment, I assure him. MACI. Troth, I like her well enough, but she's too self-conceited, methinks. FAST. Ay, indeed, she's a little too self-conceited; an 'twere not for that humour, she were the most-to-be-admired lady in the world. PUNT. Indeed, it is a humour that takes from her other excellences. MACI. Why, it may easily be made to forsake her, in my thought. FAST. Easily, sir! then are all impossibilities easy. MACI. You conclude too quick upon me, signior. What will you say, if I make it so perspicuously appear now, that yourself shall confess nothing more possible? FAST. Marry, I will say, I will both applaud and admire you for it. PUNT. And I will second him in the admiration. MACI. Why, I'll show you, gentlemen. -- Carlo, come hither. [MACI., CAR., PUNT., AND FAST. WHISPER TOGETHER. SOG. Good faith, I have a great humour to the court. What thinks my Resolution? shall I adventure? SHIFT. Troth, Countenance, as you please; the place is a place of good reputation and capacity. SOG. O, my tricks in tobacco, as Carlo says, will show excellent there. SHIFT. Why, you may go with these gentlemen now, and see fashions; and after, as you shall see correspondence. SOG. You say true. You will go with me, Resolution? SHIFT. I will meet you, Countenance, about three or four o'clock; but, to say to go with you, I cannot; for, as I am Apple-John, I am to go before the cockatrice you saw this morning, and therefore pray, present me excused, good Countenance. SOG. Farewell, good Resolution, but fail not to meet. SHIFT. As I live. [EXIT. PUNT. Admirably excellent! MACI. If you can but persuade Sogliardo to court, there's all now. CAR. O, let me alone, that's my task. [GOES TO SOGLIARDO.
