SCENE IX. Enter Maria.

Sir And.

Nor I neither.

Fab.

Here comes my noble gull-catcher.

Sir To.

Wilt thou set thy foot o' my neck?

Sir And.

Or o' mine either?

Sir To.

Shall I play my freedom at tray-trip, and become thy bond-slave?

Sir And.

I'faith, or I either?

-- 161 --

Sir To.

Why, thou hast put him in such a dream, that when the image of it leaves him, he must run mad.

Mar.

Sir To.

Like Aqua vitæ with a midwife.

Mar.

Sir To.

To the gates of Tartar; thou most excellent devil of wit!

Sir And.

I'll make one too.

[Exeunt.
