_Fisc._ No, no, mistake him not, it is a stout whoreson. You did ill to press him, it will not sound well in Europe; he being here a public minister, having no means of 'scaping should he kill you, besides exposing all his countrymen to a revenge. _Har. Jun._ That's all one; I'm resolved I will pursue my course, and fight him. _Fisc._ Pursue your end, that's to enjoy the woman and her wealth; I would, like you, have Towerson despatched,--for, as I am a true Dutchman, I do hate him,--but I would convey him smoothly out of the world, and without noise; they will say we are ungrateful else in England, and barbarously cruel; now I could swallow down the _thing_ ingratitude and the _thing_ murder, but the names are odious. _Har. Jun._ What would you have me do then? _Fisc._ Let him enjoy his love a little while, it will break no squares in the long run of a man's life; you shall have enough of her, and in convenient time. _Har. Jun._ I cannot bear he should enjoy her first; no, it is determined; I will kill him bravely. _Fisc._ Ay, a right young man's bravery, that's folly: Let me alone, something I'll put in practice, to rid you of this rival ere he marries, without your once appearing in it. _Har. Jun._ If I durst trust you now? _Fisc._ If you believe that I have wit, or love you. _Har. Jun._ Well, sir, you have prevailed; be speedy, for once I will rely on you. Farewell. [_Exit_ HARMAN. _Fisc._ This hopeful business will be quickly spoiled, if I not take exceeding care of it.--Stay,--Towerson to be killed, and privately, that must be laid down as the groundwork, for stronger reasons than a young man's passion; but who shall do it? No Englishman will, and much I fear, no Dutchman dares attempt it. _Enter_ PEREZ. Well said, in faith, old Devil! Let thee alone, when once a man is plotting villany, to find him a fit instrument. This Spanish captain, who commands our slaves, is bold enough, and is beside in want, and proud enough to think he merits wealth. _Per._ This Fiscal loves my wife; I am jealous of him, and yet must speak him fair to get my pay; O, there is the devil for a Castilian, to stoop to one of his own master's rebels, who has, or who designs to cuckold him.--[_Aside._]--[_To_ FISCAL.] I come to kiss your hand again, sir; six months I am in arrear; I must not starve, and Spaniards cannot beg. _Fisc._ I have been a better friend to you, than perhaps you think, captain. _Per._ I fear you have indeed. [_Aside._ _Fisc._ And faithfully solicited your business; send but your wife to-morrow morning early, the money shall be ready. _Per._ What if I come myself? _Fisc._ Why ye may have it, if you come yourself, captain; but in case your occasions should call you any other way, you dare trust her to receive it. _Per._ She has no skill in money.
