Have you seen the new Devote yet?

2 Lady.

Yes, with much ado: for she will not be seen, unless to some particular persons, or neer friends.

1 Lady.

And how doth she become her Religious Habit?

2 Lady.

So handsomely, as she is far handsomer in her Pease habit, than when she was drest with all the Arts of Vanityes.

1 Lady.

What manner of Habit is it?

2 Lady.

Somewhat like the Normetanes, but much more becoming.

1 Lady.

Well, I will go to the Lady her Mother, and intreat her to let me go with her to see her Daughter.

Exeunt.
