Why, what a poxe haue I to doe with my Hostesse of the Tauerne? Fal. Well, thou hast call'd her to a reck'ning many a time and oft Prin. Did I euer call for thee to pay thy part? Fal. No, Ile giue thee thy due, thou hast paid al there Prin. Yea and elsewhere, so farre as my Coine would stretch, and where it would not, I haue vs'd my credit Fal. Yea, and so vs'd it, that were it heere apparant, that thou art Heire apparant.
