Scene 41.
Enter two servants of Monsieur Malateste's.
1 SErvant.

My Master looks so lean and pale, as I doubt he is in a Con∣sumption.

2 Servant.

Faith he takes something to heart, whatsoever it is.

1 Servant.

I doubt he is jealous.

2 Servant.

He hath reason: for if my Lady doth not cuckold him, yet she gives the World cause to think she doth: for she is never without her Gal∣lants.

1 Servant.

There is a great difference betwixt our Lady that is dead, and this.

Enter Monsieur Malateste.
Malateste.

Is my Wife come home yet?

1 Servant.

No Sir.

Malateste.

I think it be about twelve of the Clock.

1 Servant.

It is past one Sir.

Malateste.

If it be so late, I will sit up no longer watching for my Wives coming home, but I will go to bed; for I am not very well.

1 Servant.

You do not look well, Sir.

Malateste.

Indeed I am sick.

Exeunt.
