_Limb._ Yes, we will come after you, bully Brainsick: but I hope you
will not draw upon us there. _Brain._ If you fear that, Bilbo shall be left behind. _Limb._ Nay, nay, leave but your madrigal behind: draw not that upon us, and it is no matter for your sword. [_Exit_ BRAIN. _Enter_ TRICKSY, _and_ MRS BRAINSICK, _with a note for each._ _Wood._ [_Aside._] Both together! either of them, apart, had been my business: but I shall never play well at this three-hand game. _Limb._ O Pug, how have you been passing your time? _Trick._ I have been looking over the last present of orange gloves you made me; and methinks I do not like the scent.--O Lord, Mr Woodall, did you bring those you wear from Paris? _Wood._ Mine are Roman, madam. _Trick._ The scent I love, of all the world. Pray let me see them. _Mrs Brain._ Nay, not both, good Mrs Tricksy; for I love that scent as well as you. _Wood._ [_Pulling them off, and giving each one._] I shall find two dozen more of women's gloves among my trifles, if you please to accept them, ladies. |
