ACT. I. SCENE. VII.
PVG. FITZDOTTREL. INGINE.
Heere is one _Ingine_, Sir, deſires to ſpeake with you.
FIT. I thought he brought ſome newes, of a broker! Well,
Let him come in, good _Diuell_: fetch him elſe.
O, my fine _Ingine_! what’s th’affaire? more cheats?
ING. No Sir, the Wit, the Braine, the great _Proiector_, 5
I told you of, is newly come to towne.
FIT. Where, _Ingine_?
ING. I ha’ brought him (H’is without)
Ere hee pull’d off his boots, Sir, but ſo follow’d,
For buſineſſes:
FIT. But what is a _Proiector_?
I would conceiue.
ING. Why, one Sir, that proiects 10
Wayes to enrich men, or to make ’hem great,
By ſuites, by marriages, by vndertakings:
According as he ſees they humour it.
FIT. Can hee not coniure at all?
ING. I thinke he can, Sir.
(To tell you true) but, you doe know, of late, 15
The State hath tane ſuch note of ’hem, and compell’d ’hem,
To enter ſuch great bonds, they dare not practice.
FIT. ’Tis true, and I lie fallow for’t, the while!
ING. O, Sir! you’ll grow the richer for the reſt.
