SCENE III.
What should this mean?
Well (Sir) you will be pleased to tell you•• friend, I shall not fail at the appointed time: and place.— You are not ignorant, I suppose, of the business.
Sir?
I say, I will not fail to meet him.—
Upon my honour (Sir) I cannot guess your meaning, I was only desired to deliver it unto you.
You will know more then I believe; for certainly you are the friend he means to bring along with him.
I the friend! —Really, as I am a Gentleman, I do not appre∣hend you.
No? that is strange; why the Gentleman doth challenge me.
'Sfoot, am I falling into another D••el?
But you say, you know nothing?—
Upon my reputation, not I.
Well (Sir) Your Serva••t. I m••st go find o••t what this doth mean.
Well, certainly in the end I shall be weary of this same Ho∣nour, it is such a dangerous thing; I am no sooner out of the haz∣zard of one quarrel, but straight I run into another; I cannot do a∣nything, scarce move, or stir, or speak, but it is ready to bring me indanger of a Duel; one quarrel I fell into yesterday, another to day, and now they are drawing me into a third. Well, to prevent them, I will e'en take a Coach and go with my little new M••stresse to Hide Park as I promised her.
