Scene 13.
Enter Lady Gravity, and Lady Perfection her Daughter in black, very handsome.
LAdy Gravity.
Will not you obey my commands?
Lady Perfection.
Yes Madam, so far as it is my duty.
Lady Gravity.
Then do as I command you, dress fine, and keep Com∣pany.
Lady Perfection.
Gay Cloths Madam, and my mind will not be suitable; my indisposed humour, and Company will not be agreeable; neither know I how to behave my self in this condition I am in, nor how to associate my self; for since my marriage is disanull'd, I am neither Maid, Virgin, Wi∣dow, nor Wife.
