Andrew.
Sir And.
Save you, Gentleman.3 note
Vio.
And you, Sir.
Sir To.
Dieu vous guarde, Monsieur.
Vio.
Et vous aussi; votre serviteur.
Sir To.
I hope, Sir, you are; and I am yours.—
Will you encounter the House? my Niece is desirous
you should enter, if your trade be to her.
Vio.
I am bound to your Niece, Sir; I mean, she
is the list of my voyage.4 note
Sir To.
Taste your legs, Sir, put them to motion.
Vio.
My legs do better understand me, Sir, than I
-- 403 --
understand what you mean by bidding me taste my
legs.
Sir To.
I mean, to go, Sir, to enter.
Vio.
I will answer you with gaite and entrance; but
we are prevented.
Enter Olivia and Maria.
Most excellent accomplish'd Lady, the heav'ns rain
odours on you!
Sir And.
That youth's a rare Courtier! rain odours?
well.
Vio.
My matter hath no voice, Lady, but to your
own most pregnant and vouchsafed ear.5 note
Sir And.
Odours, pregnant, and vouchsafed:—I'll
get 'em all three ready.
Oli.
Let the garden door be shut, and leave me to
my hearing.
