_Flo._ I think you have As little skill to fear as I have purpose To put you to't. But come; our dance, I pray: Your hand, my Perdita: so turtles pair, That never mean to part. _Per._ I'll swear for'em. 155 _Pol._ This is the prettiest low-born lass that ever Ran on the green-sward: nothing she does or seems But smacks of something greater than herself, Too noble for this place. _Cam._ He tells her something That makes her blood look out: good sooth, she is 160 The queen of curds and cream. _Clo._ Come on, strike up! _Dor._ Mopsa must be your mistress: marry, garlic, To mend her kissing with! _Mop._ Now, in good time! _Clo._ Not a word, a word; we stand upon our manners. Come, strike up! 165 [_Music. Here a dance of Shepherds and Shepherdesses._ _Pol._ Pray, good shepherd, what fair swain is this Which dances with your daughter? _Shep._ They call him Doricles; and boasts himself To have a worthy feeding: but I have it Upon his own report and I believe it; 170 He looks like sooth. He says he loves my daughter: I think so too; for never gazed the moon Upon the water, as he'll stand and read As 'twere my daughter's eyes: and, to be plain, I think there is not half a kiss to choose 175 Who loves another best. _Pol._ She dances featly. _Shep._ So she does any thing; though I report it, That should be silent: if young Doricles Do light upon her, she shall bring him that Which he not dreams of. 180 _Enter_ Servant. _Serv._ O master, if you did but hear the pedlar at the door, you would never dance again after a tabor and pipe; no, the bagpipe could not move you: he sings several tunes faster than you'll tell money; he utters them as he had eaten ballads and all men's ears grew to his tunes. 185 _Clo._ He could never come better; he shall come in. I love a ballad but even too well, if it be doleful matter merrily set down, or a very pleasant thing indeed and sung lamentably. _Serv._ He hath songs for man or woman, of all sizes; 190 no milliner can so fit his customers with gloves: he has the prettiest love-songs for maids; so without bawdry, which is strange; with such delicate burthens of dildos and fadings, 'jump her and thump her;' and where some stretch-mouthed rascal would, as it were, mean mischief and break a foul 195 gap into the matter, he makes the maid to answer 'Whoop, do me no harm, good man;' puts him off, slights him, with 'Whoop, do me no harm, good man.'
