_Eust. (to Lew.)_ Your Lordship's vow'd adorer. What a thing this Brother is! yet I'le vouchsafe him the new Italian shrug-- How clownishly the Book-worm does return it! _Char_. I'm glad ye are well. [_Reads_. _Eust_. Pray you be happy in the knowledge of this pair of accomplish'd Monsieurs; they are Gallants that have seen both Tropicks. _Bri_. I embrace their love. _Egr_. Which we'll repay with servulating. _Cow_. And will report your bounty in the Court. _Bri_. I pray you make deserving use on't first. _Eustace_, give entertainment to your Friends; what's in my house is theirs. _Eust_. Which we'll make use of; let's warm our brains with half a dozen Healths, and then hang cold discourse, for we'll speak Fire-works. [_Ex_. _Lew._ What, at his Book already? _Bri._ Fie, fie, _Charles_, no hour of interruption? _Char._ Plato differs from Socrates in this. _Bri._ Come, lay them by; let them agree at leisure. |
