Pal.

Very well sir. For as it hath pleased our Merci∣full Saviour according to the Gospels parable, to call me at the third houre of the day, e∣ven in my flowers, at the age of 24 yeares; even so I trust hee hath called, and will call you at the 11 houre, in this your old age, and giue you e∣verlasting life for your portion.

Brid.

Sai'st thou so? well Palmer, well, I would I might haue thee but one moneth in mine house, I doubt not but I would cō∣vert thee, or thou shouldst convert me.
