I shall have nothing left me but too late Repentance. This so effectually
wrought upon him, That he made all the Protestations in the World, Nothing
shou'd ever part em, if she'd but condescend to accept of him for a
Gallant: For tho he had a Wife, 'twas one he cou'd not love, and didn't
care for her; whereas he saw those Charms in her, that would constrain him
to be always constant. And that if she would promise to be as true to him
as she shou'd always find him true to her, it wou'd be all the happiness
he'd ask.--And now, to make the Bargain firm, the Bawd engages for both
Parties, that they shall each be true to one another. And then after a
costly and expensive Match they went to Bed together; where she (instructed
by the Bawd) carried her self so cunningly that her besoted Lover thought
her as good a Maid as when she was but just come to her Teens.--And that
they might the better keep company without discovery, she must pass under
the Notion of his Sister, and he of her Brother.

And now she wheedles him with so much pretended Love, that she can have
what she will of him: and finding he was flush of Money and had a good
Estate, she won't be satisfied without her Countrey-House, which was
provided for her accordingly, facing the River-side at _Hamersmith_; and
adorn'd with rich Furniture. And when her Paramour cou'd not come to her,
by reason of Business, she then sent to the Bawd, who provided her a
Stallion to supply his place, which she paid for doing her Drudgery, with
his Money. And yet when he came to see her, she wou'd wipe her mouth as if
nothing had been the matter, and cry, why does my Sweeting stay so long
away? You don't care for me now! I sigh night after night, and day after
day, for want of your Company, but you've a Wife that you love better than
you do me; and indeed I told you so at first, and then you told me you'd
love me best, and I was so simple as to believe you: But if you had lov'd
me best, you wou'd'nt have staid away from me so long, that you wou'd'nt; I
am sure if I could have come to you, I woud'nt have staid from you so long.
