Anti.

You haue preuail'd, I will depart in quiet,

And in despight of mirth meane to be merrie:

I know a wench of excellent discourse,

Prettie and wittie; wilde, and yet too gentle;

There will we dine: this woman that I meane

My wife (but I protest without desert)

Hath oftentimes vpbraided me withall:

To her will we to dinner, get you home

And fetch the chaine, by this I know 'tis made,

Bring it I pray you to the Porpentine,

For there's the house: That chaine will I bestow

(Be it for nothing but to spight my wife)

Vpon mine hostesse there, good sir make haste:

Since mine owne doores refuse to entertaine me,

Ile knocke elsewhere, to see if they'll disdaine
