ACT 3. SCEN. 2.
Enter Peter, and Quinever.
Pet.
NAy, you had best teach her to beat a drum,
Do you think to make her now an old blind Amazon.
We shall have the Sheriff to send warrants for u••,
Thus to raise Forces, and not se d••fendo;
Quin.
Lord, how wise you are good Peter, at least
You would fain s••em so, I can tell, I'me sure,
Where you have all your wisenesse.
Pet.
Where, good Quinever?
Quin.
All your law, out of the two old leaves
That lye behind the parlour-cupbord;
Piece, they say, of an old Stature book,
Which has been rotting there these twenty years.
And for your other talk, 'tis taken out
Of your old Erra-pater; and you, forscoth,
Must seem to be more wise then all of us.
I'me sure, when you made love to me,
And once were out of these two trodden roades,
You could not speak a word, but just, How do you.
