Go, go, sweet Sir Iohn: Mistris Page and I will looke some linnen for your head Mist.Page. Quicke, quicke, wee'le come dresse you straight: put on the gowne the while Mist.Ford. I would my husband would meete him in this shape: he cannot abide the old woman of Brainford; he sweares she's a witch, forbad her my house, and hath threatned to beate her Mist.Page. Heauen guide him to thy husbands cudgell: and the diuell guide his cudgell afterwards |
