The SONG.
Enter at the window Francke and Clora.1.TEll me dearest what is Love?2.'Tis a lightning from above, 'Tis an arrow, 'tis a fire, 'Tis a boy they call Desire.Both.'Tis a grave, Gapes to have Those poore fooles that long to prove.1.Tell me more, are women true?2.Yes, some are, and some as you. Some are willing, some are strange, Since you men first taught to change.Both.And till troth Be in both, All shall love, to love anew.1.Tell me more yet, can they grieve?2.Yes, and sicken sore, but live: And be wise, and delay, When you men are as wise as they.Both.Then I see Faith will be, Never till they both beleeve.

The SONG.
AWay delights, goe seeke some other dwelling, For I must dye. Farewell false Love, thy tongue is ever telling Lye after lye. For ever let me rest now from thy smarts, Alas, for pitty goe, And fire their hearts That have been hard to thee, mine was not so.Never againe deluding love shall know me, For I will dye: And all those griefes that thinke to over-grow me Shall be as I. For ever will I sleepe, while poore maids cry, Alas for pity stay And let us dye With thee, men cannot mocke us in the day.

Score a gallon of Sack, and a pinte of Olives to the Vnicorne.
Mull a pinte of Sack there for the women in the Flower-deluce, & put in ginger enough, they belch like potguns,
And Robbin fetch Tobacco for the Peacock, they will not Drunke till midnight else: how now how does my Master.Page 63

The SONG.
COme hither you that love, and heare me sing of joyes still growing Green, fresh, and lusty, as the pride of Spring, and ever blowing. Come hither youths that blush, and dare not know what is desire, And olde men worse then you, that cannot blow one sparke of fire. And with the power of my enchanting Song, Boyes shall be able men, and old men young.Enter Angilo above.Come hither you that hope, and you that cry, leave off complaining, Youth, strength, and beauty, that shall never dye, are here remaining. Come hither fooles, and blush, you stay so long from being blest, And mad men worse then you, that suffer wrong, Yet seeke no rest. And in an houre, with my enchanting Song, You shall be ever pleas'd, and yovng maids long.
Umh, umh.—

Novv vvill the sport be, it runnes right as Iulio told us
But I will have one of that old Rogues teeth sett in this Ring
Your Father in law, as sure as this is widow Lelia.
Shall we not make Piso, and Lodwick friends?
Not a vvhit vvench; I'le teach thee presently to be a Souldier
