FITZ-DOTTRELL. Miſtreſſe FITZ-DOTTREL. PVG.
How now, ſweet heart? what’s the matter?
M^rs. FI. Good!
You are a ſtranger to the plot! you ſet not
Your fancy _Diuell_, here, to tempt your wife,
With all the inſolent vnciuill language,
Or action, he could vent?
FIT. Did you so, _Diuell_? 5
M^rs. FIT. Not you? you were not planted i’ your hole to heare him,
Vpo’ the ſtayres? or here, behinde the hangings?
I doe not know your qualities? he durſt doe it,
And you not giue directions?
FIT. You shall ſee, wife,
Whether he durſt, or no: and what it was, 10
I did direct.
_Her huſband goes out, and enters presently with a
cudgell vpon him._
PVG. Sweet Miſtreſſe, are you mad?
FIT. You moſt mere Rogue! you open manifeſt Villaine!
You Feind apparant you! you declar’d Hel-hound!
PVG. Good S^r.
FIT. Good Knaue, good Raſcal, and good Traitor.
Now, I doe finde you parcel-_Diuell_, indeed. 15
Vpo’ the point of truſt? I’ your firſt charge?
The very day o’ your probation?
To tempt your Miſtreſſe? You doe ſee, good wedlocke,
How I directed him.
M^rs. FIT. Why, where S^r? were you? [119]
FIT. Nay, there is one blow more, for exerciſe: 20
_After a pause. He ſtrikes him againe_
I told you, I ſhould doe it.
PVG. Would you had done, Sir.
FIT. O wife, the rareſt man! yet there’s another
To put you in mind o’ the laſt, ſuch a braue man, wife!
Within, he has his proiects, and do’s vent ’hem,
_and againe._
The gallanteſt! where you _tentiginous_? ha? 25
Would you be acting of the _Incubus_?
Did her ſilks ruſtling moue you?
PVG. Gentle Sir.
