SCENE IV. Another apartment in the same. [Enter the Husband with the master of the College.] HUSBAND. Please you draw near, sir, y'are exceeding welcome. MASTER. Thats my doubt; I fear, I come not to be welcome. HUSBAND. Yes, howsoever. MASTER. Tis not my fashion, Sir, to dwell in long circumstance, but to be plain, and effectual; therefore, to the purpose. The cause of my setting forth was piteous and lamentable: that hopeful young gentleman, your brother, whose vertues we all love dearly, through your default and unnatural negligence, lies in bond executed for your debt, a prisoner, all his studies amazed, his hope struck dead, and the pride of his youth muffled in these dark clouds of oppression. HUSBAND. Hum, um, um. MASTER. |
