acquainted
with
this
comely
countenance

the
diuel
of
countenance
there
was
to

Tis

Though

A

For

Ile
forsweare
talking

Ran.
I

With

Draw

Ran.
With

No

Ran.
I

Celerity

I
meane
so

Smi.
No
more
but
so

a
words

Fre.
But
what's
the
subiect

Smi.
Why
each

vs
is
to
indite
an
Epistle
to
our
Mistresse

is
it
not
so
?
Ran.
Right
.
Smi.
Then
write
.
Dor.
This
will
be
good
mirth
I
hope
.
Lan.
Rediculous
enough

Fre

So
it
shud
be

and
yet
my
little
Smirke
heere
has
conceit

hee'le
haue
some
flashes

Dor.
A
couple
of
pretty
scribes

The
challenger
has
the
aduantage
,
he
might
premeditate

Fre.
No
matter
,
Smirks
best
at
a
start

his
wit
is
like
your
Hackney

all
a
gallop
,
to
which
hee
sayes

Vtere
diligentia

nec

cessator

which

clawing
the
Pole

He
has
rub'd
it
out

Fre.
Smirke
goes
on
smoothly

without
any
rub

Lan.
Yet
there
he
had
one

Fred.
Hold
bias

and
a
sentence
then
.
Ran.
Scripsi

Smi.
Et

Lan.
Very
good

Ran.
I

And
good

Ran.
Fairest

sweetest

Ran.
I
remember
my
duty
to
you
in
black

Smi.
I
wud
it
had
beene
black

blew

Lan.
Peace
.
Ran.
For
all
coulors
else
waue
vnder
the
standard
of
your
beauty
.
Smi.
I
wonder
what
part
of
her
,
is
Goose-turd
greene
:
Thats
a
colour
.
Ran.
You
are
the
mistresse
of
beauty
.
Smi.
I
wud
a
said
the
Queene
or
Empresse

Ran.
And
all
other
women
are
but
your
hand-maids
.
Smi.
O
abominable
barren
.
Lan.
Nay
Smirke
silence
,
you
must
not
interrupt
your
aduersary
.
Ran.
I
can
say
nothing
without
saying
too
much
,
nor
say
too
much
without
saying
nothing
.
Smi.
I
must
say
nothing
,
or
else
I
wud
say
something
,
but
heere
it
is
shall
shame
thee
.
Ran.
Me thinkes
when
thou
standst'd
in
the
sun
with
thy
Feather
on
thy
head
,
and
thy
Fanne
in
thy
hand
,
thou
look'st
like
the
Phoenix
of
the
East
Indies
,
burning
in
spices
,
for
Cloues
,
Mace
,
and
Nutmegs
are
in
thy
breath
.
Smi.
She
wud
make
an
excellent
Wassell-Bole
.
Lan.
Againe
.
Smi.
I
haue
done
.
Ran.
The
Aples
of
thy
brest
are
like
the
Lemans
of
Arabia
,
which
makes
the
vessell
so
sweete
it
can
neuer
smell
of
the
Caske
.
Fre.
If
she
shud
that
might
proue
the
Brewers
fault
.
Ran.
Being
come
to
your
middle
I
must
draw
to
an
end
,
for
my
end
is
at
the
middle
because
of
the
Prouerbe
.
In
Medio
consistet
virtus
,
and
so
I
conclude
:
yours
while
mine
owne
,
and
afterward
if
it
were
possible
Marmaduke
Ranoff
.
Smi.
Well
now
let
me
run
on
,
iudgement
I
craue
.
Fre.
Which
thou
shalt
haue

Smir.
Illustrious
,
bright
shining
,
well
spoken
,
and
blood
stirring
Lady

Lan.
I
,
marry
Sir

Smir.
If
the
Rope
of
my
Capacitie
,
could
reach
to
the
Belfrie
of
your
Beautie
,
these
words
of
mine
like
siluer
Bels
,
might
be
worthy
to
hang
in
the
eares
of
your
fauor
but
the
Ladder
of
my
Inuention
is
to
low
to
clime
vp
to
the
Steeple
of
your
Vnderstanding
.
All
.
Excellent
Smirke
.
Smir.
If
it
were
not
,
I
shoud
ring
out
my
minde
to
you
in
a
sweet
Peale
of
most
sauory
conceits
.
For
your
face
it
is
like
the
Sun
,
no
man
is
able
to
indure
it
.
All
That's
very
good
.
Smi.
Your
forehead
which
I
will
neither
compare
vnto
Alablaster
,
nor
to
the
Lilly
,
but
it
is
as
it
is
,
and
so
are
both
your
eyes
,
for
your
Nose
,
it
is
a
well
arched
Bridge
,
which
for
breuities
sake
I
passe
ouer
:
your
Cheeks
are
like
a
good
Comedy
,
worthy
to
bee
clapt
:
your
Lips
,
and
your
Teeth
are
incomparable
;
your
Tongue
like
the
instrument
of
Orpheus
,
able
to
tame
the
furies
:
to
handle
euery
part
of
you
were
too
much
,
but
some
particular
part
,
no
man
can
sufficient
.
Fre.
Prithee
let
me
giue
thee
a
box
on
the
care
,
for
that
conceit
.
Smi.
No
my
good
Lord
,
pray
keepe
your
bounties
.
From
top
to
toe
you
are
a
sweete
vessell
of
delight
,
I
dare
not
say
a
Barrell
,
for
oftentimes
with
much
ioulting
,
the
Brewer
beates
out
the
Bunghole
,
and
so
the
good
liquor
runs
out
,
but
you
containe
yours
although
not
hoopt
about
with
the
old
fashion'd
farthingall
,
but
after
the
new
fashion
ti'd
vp
with
points
,
to
vntrusse
at
your
pleasure
,
In
which
pleasure
I
leaue
you
,
fairest
of
a
hundred
,
and
wittiest
of
a
thousand
:
resting
in
little
rest
,
till
I
rest
wholy
yours
,
in
the
Downe-Bed
of
affection
,
where euer
standing
to
my
vtmost

I
rest
all
in
all
yours

Fre.
Coud
any

Ran.
Your

Gentlmen

in
praise
of
tall

and
little

and
chuse
your
subiect

which
you

Smir.
Why
then
Ile
take
your
little
women
.
Ran.
And
I
your

Lan.
I

heere

The

And
they
are
worth

Land.
We
must
haue
Patience

for
this
verse

so
roundly
as
your
Prose

Attention
.
Ran.
Listen
you
tall
and
likewise
you
low
man
,
I
sing
the
prayses
of
a
bouncing
woman
.
A
full
well
set
bigge-bon'd
and
fairely
ioynted
,
Fit
to
bid
welcome
men
that
are
best
appointed
.
Land.
Excellent
.
Ran.
To
your
tall
woman
your
little
one
is
nothing
,
No
more
then
is
a
high
thing
to
a
low
thing
.
All
That's
true
.
Ran.
For
your
small
Dandiprat
,
I
hope
there's
no
man
That
thinks
her
but
a
hobby
horse
to
woman
.
A
thing
to
be
forgot
and
neuer
knowne
,
But
on
a
Holyday
to
the
rout
showne
.
In
warres
the
Basilisco
is
preferd
Before
the
Musket
,
and
is
lowder
heard
.
Lan.
There's
an
error
little
and
loude
my
friend
,
but
passe
it
.
Ran.
In
euery
triumph
where
there
is
excesse
,
The
greater
alwayes
putteth
downe
the
lesse
.
The
Lionesse
is
more
admired
at
,
Then
her
Epitome
,
which
is
a
Cat
.
Lan.
The
foole
growes
serious
.
Fre.
He
has
stolne
it
certainly
.
Lan.
No
faith
,
it
may
be
his
own
,
for
I
thinke
his
braine
a
little
craz'd
,
and
mad
men
shoot
foorth
strange
things
.
Ran.
But
to
weake
vnderstandings
now
I
come
,
Is
your
small
Taber
musicke
to
your
Drum
.
Smir.
Hum
Drum
,
hee
has
lightn'd
within
an
Inch
of
a
conceit
of
mine
.
Ran.
Or
in
instrument
of
peace
,
can
there
that
triall
Be
made
vpon
a
Kit
as
a
base
Viole
.
Iudge
you
my
Masters
,
that
on
both
haue
playd
,
It
is
but
my
opinion
,
and
I
haue
sayd
.
Fre.
Beleeue
it
he
has
said
well
,
Smirke
looke
to
your selfe

Smir.
I
warrant
you
.
Giue
me
audience
.
All
.
Scilence
.
Smir.
In
praise
of
little
women
I
begin
.
And
will
maintaine
what
I
haue
enter'd
in
.
Is
not
your
Parochit
or
Marmoset
In
more
request
then
your
Baboone
or
Parret
.
Giue
but
your
little
wench
freely
her
licour
,
And
to
bed
send
her
you
will
find
her
quicker
;
Pearter
,
nimbler
,
both
to
kisse
and
cogge
,
Then
your
great
wench
that'll
lie
like
a
logge
.
And
he
that
all
day
at
the
Drum
doth
labor
,
Wud
at
night
gladly
play
vpon
a
Taber
.
I
hope
ther's
no
man
,
but
of
this
beliefe
,
That
Veale's
more
sweete
and
nourishing
then
Beefe
:
Small
meats
is
still
preferd
;
for
aske
your
glutton
,
Heele
alwayes
say
,
Lamb's
sweeter
then
your
Mutton
.
Your
Smelt
then
Whiting
firmer
is
and
sounder
,
Nor
must
your
Place
compare
with
your
neat
Flounder

Fred.
Well

In

proue
it
to

A

Is

The

And
