Excerpt from The Dramatick Works of Beaumont and Fletcher, Vol. 7 of 10: Containing, Love's Pilgrimage; Double Marriage; Maid in the Mill; Knight of Malta; Love's Cure, or the Martial Maid
We've bid ye welcome, and to many aplay And thofe whole angry fouls were not difeas'd With law, or lending money, we have pleas'd; And make no doubt to do again. This night, No mighty matter, nor no light We mul'c entreat you look for: A good tale, Told in two hours, we will not fail, If we be perfect, to rehearfe ye. New I'm fure it is, and handfome; but how true Let them difpute that writ it. Ten to one We pleafe the women, and I'd know that man Follows not their example! If ye mean To know the play well, travel with the fcene, For't lies upon the road: If we chance tire, As ye are good men, leave us act i' th' mire; Another bait may mend us: If you grow A little gall'd or weary, cry but hoa,' And we'll fiay for ye. When our journey ends, Every man's pot I hope, and all part friends.
