half nonsense: like a clock out of order, set him a-going, and he
strikes eternally. Besides, he thinks me such a fool, that I could
half resolve to revenge myself, in justification of my wit.

_Wood._ Come, come, no half resolutions among lovers; I'll hear no
more of him, till I have revenged you fully. Go out and watch, Judith.
[_Exit_ JUDITH.

_Mrs Brain._ Yet, I could say, in my defence, that my friends married
me to him against my will.

_Wood._ Then let us put your friends, too, into the quarrel: it shall
go hard, but I'll give you a revenge for them.

_Enter_ JUDITH _again, hastily._

How now? what's the matter?

_Mrs Brain._ Can'st thou not speak? hast thou seen a ghost?--As I
live, she signs horns! that must be for my husband: he's returned.
[JUDITH _looks ghastly, and signs horns._

_Jud._ I would have told you so, if I could have spoken for fear.

_Mrs Brain._ Hark, a knocking! What shall we do? [_Knocking._
There's no dallying in this case: here you must not be found, that's
certain; but Judith hath a chamber within mine; haste quickly thither;
I'll secure the rest.

_Jud._ Follow me, sir. [_Exeunt_ WOODALL, JUDITH.
