SCENE VIII.
Florinda sitting on a Bank before a Cottage.
'Ive waited so long for this Philosopher of mine,
that I almost begin to suspect his Courage, and fear
a Disappointment. Well, pray Heaven I an't in Love
with the Brute after all—for I begin to find myself a little
upon—I don't know how:—If so, I have jested to some
Purpose:—If he should not come now, I should be
strangely vexed methinks:—But I wrong him; for see
where he comes, with a Pace, and Countenance as solemn
as a Bawd's at a Funeral.—Now I begin to find the Woman
very strong in me; I must plague him a little, tho' I
must confess it is something barbarous;—but we have it in
our Natures, and I can't help it.
